Here's my various setups. There's an odd variety of stuff because I like to experiment and try out everything.
Starting out: fuel tank, biofuel tanks, and a whole heck of a lot of steam boilers, both solid fuel (from tree farms) and biofuel (from saplings, wheat, and so on). A total of 16 36HP boilers at the moment, but I keep running out of places to store the extra fuel and building more.
Facing the other direction, there's the building that houses the four nuclear reactors (the 4 in this world, anyway), as well as our lava tank and the generators for that:
Here is a shot of the wheat farms and tree farms, which also has my seed oil tank and apple juice tank in the picture:
Inside the building to the left side of the previous picture are my biofuel fermenters and stills. The bottom two floors are two peat farms and a tree farm, with engine rooms and more peat farms above.
Two of the engine room floors are combustion engines, both following this same design, 8 combustion engines per floor, made of basalt and hardened glass just in case of explosions, though that hasn't happened since I figured that BC pumps are terrible compared to aqueous accumulators.
The next floor up from the combustion engines contains peat-fire engines, which are mostly there to produce ash for making bituminous peat and fertilizer for all the farms. They're fed by routers that put peat in and suck the ash out with no interaction on my part:
Next up is what I call the Infernal Milking Apparatus. Turtles using buckets on cows which feed into liquid transposers and keep the tanks full despite having 30 engines running off it. The lava comes from the tank in a previous picture, which is pumped out of the nether. Hence the Infernal in Infernal Milking Apparatus. I know it's ridiculous. Why? Because I CAN!
Next up is the coal coke production, which is more than enough to power another 12HP boiler on just the creosote, not to mention the coke output:
Then, of course, there has to be wind power, both IC2 and RedPower:
(with an added shot of my giant tank full of short mead. Why? Because I CAN. Plus the Enderman grinder)
And lastly is the other 4 nuclear reactors, which are constantly supplied with fresh fuel cells by routers for a constant supply of 960eu/t. It's rather compact because the entire thing is built inside of the trunk of a giant tree, with reinforced stone to keep it safe if there happens to be an error.
The last 4 reactors are purely to provide the force field around the server's central mystcraft book hub for transport between people's bases and various dimensions, which is all built inside of the previously mentioned tree:
