You essentially just showcased exactly why I suggest what I do. Given Minecraft, you'll always have enough power to do what you want once you've built the correct power structure. This means that the energy transfer values are pointless and only serve to restrict the speed in which you get to...

What you're suggesting doesn't solve the problems I specifically mentioned at all. Given a period of time (generally short.. less than a week), any player on a server will generally be able to produce enough power to run any one of their machines (and in many cases, all of their machines)...
