It should work with structures that have an electric field, which are the pylon, substation and generators. Does it not work?
That is very weird. Does it still happen if you start a new world or if you download the game again? I am not sure what the problem is.
I must apologize, it turns out this is a bug that happens when you place structures above the goddess it seems. I haven't yet figured it out but it will be fixed in the next update.
