Remote harvesting is a strategy used by many players to harvest more energy than is available in the rooms they own. It involves sending creeps into a nearby room, either an unowned room or a Source Keeper room, and harvesting the energy from those rooms and bringing it back.

Source Keeper Rooms

Each 10x10 sector of the map contains 8 source keeper rooms in a ring around the center. These rooms have no controller, so they cannot be owned. However, they contain 4 sources each, and each source contains a maximum of 4000 energy rather than 3000. This makes them a good source of energy.

However, these rooms are guarded by non-player Source Keepers, which will attack creeps that try to harvest the sources
