Too Much Free Time
Witch Shard-> redstone, +tome -> soulsand, into centrifuge= coal dust, saltpetre, sand and oil cell, into distil tower-> fuel, sulphuric acid, glycerol-> into chem. reactor -> nitro coalfuel.
Byproducts
Saltpetre+sand+dirt= forestry fertilizer (the purple apatite stuff)
Glowstone is a fairly neat amplifier in the matterfab.
Coal dust-> steel/diamond

That's not ridiculous. That's not even comical. That's Conventional.
I plan on, in my 1.6 world I'm trying to set up, using some kind of recharging suit of armor (likely a MPS outfit) to bootstrap my power production until my Slaughterhouse has enough power to run via liquid meat powering bio-engines. If that don't work, I'll just go to space, build a space station, and use solars there, and smelt charcoal from a Nether Tree Farm on site using AE to get the wood there, to power a GT Steam Boiler and eventually use that to bootstrap my Fusion Reactor. Somehow. Maybe I'll just skip all that and just power my base via RTGs. Or since I'm not too boring, I'll use UE and make a big ass particle accelerator and just use Antimatter for my needs.
My current setup is 1 squid with 8 ranchers feeding 32 bioreactors, biofuel fed into 12 unifiers(cause why not), ethanol is fed to a max size railcraft steel tank then to 5 max size HP boilers, steam is transformed to mj via power convertors and stored in 21 Redstone energy cells, distribution via tesseracts to where every I need it.
Coke ovens anyone? You can do it two ways with these, one is to the conventional tree farms and you'll get max power from every log coming off the production. But take it a step further and get a supply of good old coal and have 100's of these things cooking up power for your entire base. Creosote alone can be burned in boilers for extra juice. 104 ovens is all you need to power 3 full sized HPs on creosote if you use coal. You'll need to double production if you wanna go completely renewable.
Nothing too unusual compared to some here, but I'm in the process of building seven 5x5 (minus center square for water) farms with IC2 Crops to feed a Bioreactor. That's six dyes and netherwart. I'm wondering how much breeding, if any, it will require. Though seven types should be rather efficient.
A classic I have seen previously, a Zombie Juicer.
Will require Unhinged but get zombie production of some sort (i.e. soul shards, etc.) and some cheap method for killing them quickly. Break down the rotten flesh for methane, pump into whatever power generator you like be it liquid 36HP or gas turbine, etc.
Bonus points if you make a building around it with a butt for the methane to come out...

there's a gas turbine now, meant as the replacement. Also, a GT boiler. Yeah, removing compatibility wasnt cool, but there's options.
Lava!!!!!!!!!!! no I kid. way to easy and overused ahahha
all steam is a cool way to go, so MJ
Using apple's to make biomass is another good one

17x18 sugarcane farm (roughly 250 plants, 50ish lilypads of fertility)
harvested by 4 MFR harvesters with tin(I think... the 9x9 ones) upgrades.
Fed into 2 pulverisers, sugar then cooked into sugar charcoal in a mekanism advanced factory.
Sugar charcoal then cooked in coke ovens to form sugar coke (28 coke ovens)
Sugar coke then combined to make coal coke
coal coke into a 36hp boiler
reactor turbines running off the steam
creosote oil from coke ovens fed into an 8HP liquid boiler, that feeds 8 industrial steam engines for a little extra kick
Total power: fuck knows... those reactor turbines are NOT well documented and you need to know bloody fillipino to understand the code

We need a mod dev to add a hamster wheel generator. Different mobs in the wheel could give you different power outputs.
You can bonemeal mushrooms, yes, but last I checked they had to be on Mycellum to actually grow.
