That's out of date. There are no energy tesseracts any more. All tesses are generalists and power transfer is lossless afaik.
What does YOUR Power Room look like?

There is no energy loss in Monster 1.0.9 at least. I transform power from EU (wind mills) to RF using power converters, then teleport with tesseracts. Exact same amount of power when converted back to EU (8192 EU/t per 4 EV mills).
Unleashed includes IC2 Nuclear Control, which includes a heat monitor that can be configured to shut off your reactor at a set temperature. It also provides some neat screen things that look infinitely better than ComputerCraft monitors and can easily be set up to give you reactor info, energy storage info, liquid storage info, or just basic text. No coding needed.
For people saying the tesseract info is out of date - note that the original question is about Unleashed.
How did you rotate the windmills?I just finished (I think) my power setup in our current world. Haven't really used anything besides boilers before, but this time I tried the compact windmills (Monster).
They have a fairly big cost in terms of iron (probably at around 100k total now), but it's a nice step up from boilers in terms of output without FPS / TPS impact. They're convenient to place high up in the air out of the way, and then teleport the power down using power converters and tesseracts.
I also like them because they give a reason to go through with the IC2 mass fab setup ordeal (for iridium rotors) and something to use quarried resources on.
Output from the setup is a constant 65k RF/t (16384 EU/t) without any maintenance or fuel.
Flux-infused omniwrench, haven't tried other wrenches. Just right-click the side you want the rotor to be.
Mind you, I have my version set to a 2.0 multiplier, in order to keep the regular Big Reactor competitive with the IC2 nuclear reactor. Either way, however, that turbine really puts out a ton of energy. Whew.

This early game setup kept me going for a long long while, the oil still hasnt run out:
Ive set up my engines like this since I first used one. Theres actually seven more but you cant see them.
Heres my new power system, unfinished:

Show it off in the default texture pack. That way we all know what we are looking at :{P
WIP:
Right corner will soon have a big railcraft steel tank for the lava, the alcove at the back will eventually house a BigReactor.
I also need to finish adding the rest of the magmatic dynamos.
This world is sort of new XD

Happened to me in ReactorCraft; you can imagine my consternation when I was coming back to my base and suddenly got "Achievement Unlocked: Time to Move" (meltdown.)Regarding having your machines near your power stations, it does have it's advantage of having everything in as few chunks as possible, since from what I heard, it helps the server as there is fewer chunk updates.
However there is ONE thing you should always think about: Have your water supply in the same chunk as your engines/power station. One of the number one reasons for blowing stuff up is that water supply got cut off because it was in a chunk that got unloaded while the engines was in a active chunk.
When planning your layout, it helps to use F9 to get chunk limits grids. Really useful. Might not be an issue if you have a chunkloader that keeps everything running, but good planning always helps.
Yes my water supply was several chunks away
It IS the default texture pack!
There's still that texture bug with steam affecting DW20 and Monster packs.
Look on the bright side. You've got an achievement!Happened to me in ReactorCraft; you can imagine my consternation when I was coming back to my base and suddenly got "Achievement Unlocked: Time to Move" (meltdown.)

That will get reset if anything happens to his instance because achievements are supper derpy and stored client side.

I would post my power room... if I had one. Currently, because it's an Agrarian Skies world, I only have one Magmatic Dynamo on my machine platform currently.
