For starters, head to the Buried City map in Arc Raiders. From here, you will need to go to Red Tower, which is located on the south-east side of the map, right beside Plaza Rosa. Between a small compound of towers, you will find an entrance to the station. Beside that will be a small metallic structure with a bag lying near it. Interact with it to retrieve the battery cell.

Now, take the battery cell to the generator behind you and install it inside. After that, to the right side of the generator, you will find the switch button. Interact with this, and the generator will power up. For the last step, take a right and jump into the left Red building using the window.
