Fallout: 10 Most Evil Companies 

5. Poseidon Energy

Another energy company from the Fallout universe is Poseidon Energy. Players will most likely remember them as the owners of HELIOS One, a solar power plant from New Vegas. Sounds great right? In a world almost depleted of oil and filled with nuclear waste what we could really use is some solar power.

Sadly, the base also powers a giant orbital space laser.

The project, named Archimedes II was a joint venture between Poseidon Energy and the United States government and sat waiting in space abandoned after the war for hundreds of years before the NCR eventually took control of HELIOS One and (depending on character choices) unlocked the power of the space laser.

The laser delivers an extremely accurate, powerful energy blast that can vaporize people into thin air and devastate entire cities. Truly, the HELIOS One facility is one of the most dangerous relics of the ancient pre-war world and the wasteland can only hope that this technology doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
