Unlike stargates, which are free to use, jump drives require fuel. The jump drive comes with a special fuel bay which can only store fuel for the jump drive. The fuel required depends on the race that constructed the drives, and can be produced by refining ice mined in that race's territory. The respective fuel type for each race is:

The fuel cost for each jump is not calculated by the number of stargate jumps to the destination. Instead, it depends on the distance between the two systems in space (measured in light-years). Each jump drive has a maximum jump range, and consumes a certain amount of fuel per light-year.  
The fuel cost for each jump is not calculated by the number of stargate jumps to the destination. Instead, it depends on the distance between the two systems in space (measured in light-years). Each jump drive has a maximum jump range, and consumes a certain amount of fuel per light-year. The maximum jump range is extended by the skill [[Skills:Navigation#Jump_Drive_Calibration|Jump Drive Calibration]] (25% increase per level), and the fuel consumption is reduced by the skill [[Skills:Navigation#Jump_Fuel_Conservation]] (10% reduction per level).
