I added advanced solar panels in monster but my current setup of a wall of magmatic engines does not seem to be producing enough power. I have steam boilers with a consistent supply of biofuel but I do not know how to use the steam without power converters.
What is an easy way to create ultimate hybrid solar panels?

What kind of power do you want? EU? RF? MJ? UE?
Steam can be consumed in lots of ways. For RF (and MJ) you have steam dynamo's for MJ you have steam engines and for EU you can use railcraft's steam turbine.
Now your title suggest you want to make UHSP's and those generate EU afaik. How to make them easy? With an Applied Energetics network and the Molecular Assembler chamber you should be able to automate it.

I also have mekanism installed so whatever power I generate is universal for my machines.
The steam dynamo seems to have a lot less potential to produce energy than the old steam consumers, I will check out the steam turbines.
I already have an AE system set up, I am currently playing on a single player world so any methods that take a lot of in-game time are ineffective for me.
The trouble I have with manufacturing the panels are the sunnarium and iridium. I am currently using 2 molecular transformers with 40 magmatic engines each and a mv solar panel but it is still creating the necessary parts at a snail's pace.

creaiting parts at a snail's pace... MAC... have you used more crafting computers? try tinkering with your set up... 6 or so computers should probably be enough else probably your manufacturing process is not capable of keeping up with the demand for the other materials...
No I mean that the molecular transformers are taking forever to create the parts. I do not have an advanced energy setup so I have problems generating the millions of EU. A basic AE system would be waiting for the parts to be made.
all I know solar panels are now tad bit harder to make... so I do suggest up the crafting computer counts a bit heck I'm not even sure if feeding the AE system more power makes them faster... I do know crafting computers does... then get yourself busy probably to TC4 research while at it or make some boilers.. I dunno else feed your IC2 machines more overclockers... make them act silly in a way.No I mean that the molecular transformers are taking forever to create the parts.

as a I'm not sure where the problem is at sunarium and iridium can only be made via mass fab... well I guess thats where you start feed your mass fab silly with power+scrap box amplifiers... how I leave that process to you TE dynamos + uni cable, Mekanism generators or Nukes... your call your choice

I have boilers and I have researched thaumcraft 4, my problem is that I want to make the ultimate hybrid solar panels but I can't get the sunnarium or iridium. It has absolutely nothing to do with AE or any other kind of auto crafting feature.
ohh then patience and feed your mass fab silly with more power... thats the only advise I can give you... then hopefully you have a sunnarium with you because Im not sure how much liquid-UU it needs or is it even ready for IC2-EXP same goes for iridium I estimate each one can be done at 5 mins give or take... lest your replictor? has overclockers too...
Yeah, I have some but they complicated the UU-matter process to a ridiculous degree, besides it also requires so much energy I would be better off just using the molecular transformer.
ok so advanced solar panels mod adds it huh... well feed that with more power then... then patience go breeding trees while at it or do more TC4 research unless your done with all of them else cheat in a quantum generator and see what it does with a very amped u power output... orz... because probably the process is more like steve's carts where patience is the name of the game... but I dunno since you have mekanism with you why not combine all of your power networks and feed it into the molecular transformer.Yeah, I have some but they complicated the UU-matter process to a ridiculous degree, besides it also requires so much energy I would be better off just using the molecular transformer.
I hate cheating and do not allow it when I play minecraft in general.
Yeah, it seems like there is no easy way to make ultimate's, I'll just cry tears of blood born from my impatience.
On another topic, any other large scale energy production that is fairly easy to set up?

we recommend big reactors it seems easy enough to produce large scale energy production (like silly easy and its nuke for RF which should also work with mekanism universal cable)... else atomic science (same) or IC2-exp nukesI hate cheating and do not allow it when I play minecraft in general.

Yeah, I've heard of those mods (Big Reactor, Atomic Science) but I am having trouble finding out how to get started. Do you have a link to a thread or tutorial that I could use?

You normally don't "cheat" but you are looking for easy-mode unlimted power.
The UHSP's are end game stuff. You need to have quite some infrastructure ready to be able to make those. And to be honest, thats the fun part of getting to the UHSP's! Judging from your reply's you are at a mid-game stage and just not ready to craft them.
If you dont care about what you need to do to be able to craft them I suggest you spawn in some iridium or the panels themselves and be done with it. After all it's your world.
I dont advise the above though. Once you have those panels.. every other way of generating power seems pointless and can suck the fun out of your world quite soon.

No I don't cheat, I am simply using these mods with the features that they were designed to have, I consider cheating to be anything to do with commands. Also, I generally just use power I generate to make factories, if you find that your worlds are boring after getting the solar's try looking into the magic mods or setting up various automation's.
big reactor is easier... get it go find NEI make a tank with the reactor wall block (built like an RC tank) put a controller an item valve and then chuck in yellowrium rods... if in doubt check BevoLJ's spotlight on both mods...Yeah, I've heard of those mods (Big Reactor, Atomic Science) but I am having trouble finding out how to get started.

Thanks will check out.
Do you use GregTech? If so, going the route via centrifuging Platinum Dust is another way to get Iridium. Or mining the End, I guess.
I don't generally play with gregtech but I might add it in, how does mining the end get iridium?
EDIT: Never mind, sheldonite ore.
