Hi! The problem is that, unfortunately, Factorio doesn't enable new recipes from researched technologies. Some mods add reloading code, but this leads to duplication of recalculation and some performance degradation. To overcome it, I made a separate extra small mod, feel free to use it: Recipes-Reload.
Speaking of your question, I don't quite understand it... Basically, everything works absolutely the same, you just get new electric energy source using lightning handlers, and lightning towers as energy consumers. You can easily try it out in sandbox game mode :)
