My Sugercane Power Plant

good job
1 massive sugar cane plantation = 5eu/t
1 solar flower 13eu/t
over-all rating : crap

One problem I saw with your design, your farm collects over 64 reed, so I recommend more generators (don't say it's too expensive, cause I saw the )
Also, even for fun, you could have a couple of hooked up, too either start collecting for a mass fab or for making random items from scrap boxes. But I would have to agree with the previous poster, solar is the way to go, if you can afford an then you can afford a 32 eu/tick system, only reason I use reed farms is for when I have equivalent exchange installed to get infinite coal

I prefer watermills now, feeding them with water buckets.

Why not just use all that space (and resources) to simply immerse the watermills? If you take a look at the Wiki, you could set up a water tower where each mill produces 15% more power than you get from adding buckets. Also, you won't need to worry about supply and maintenance.

In that space, you could put in 4 water towers, each with as many mills as you have on that floor. So your output would be nearly 5 times as much power without all the machinery!

Without machinery it would be boring

Based on how he wired the fiber, he doesn't like his CPU either, would be MUCH better off going with painted copper cables, 4 parallel painted wires long -> batbox.

EDIT: There's really no reason to waste diamonds on fiber for this, I could make a 0 loss wire system easily and save resources...

True, just made exactly that thing when added more watermills.

Probably TMIed all of it anyway.

Wow.. nice, see a system like that and the first assumption is "cheating"? Insulting much?
I could *easily* make something identical to that in my current IC2 world. i've got a half stack + 8 *blocks* of diamond for use plus a good 40 glass fibre cable in a chest. (dismantled a project and had the leftover cable)

I agree with FnordMan - that's a pretty modest project, no call for accusations of invediting. I could bring home enough stuff to make that from one mining expedition or a quarry.
