So i need to move BC energy about 2000 blocks across the world im on, how might one go about doing so without 2000 energy pipes?

Ive used energy conduits before but ever since the update they changed. Help?

I myself would probably convert into rf with power converters and use a tesseract. The easiest way don't know if it's the most efficient though.

Another option would be an AE system set up with a quantum link between the two locations, at which point you could use P2P Tunnels to connect the energy pipes remotely. I wouldn't recommend this if all you're doing is powering a pump or similar, but it would be a decent solution if you have two bases you're trying to run power between.

 

And if you don't like PowerConverters, I believe Energy Transfer Nodes automatically convert MJ to RF, which could then be used with tesseracts and energy conduits.

P2P tunnels are nice; however 100eu/t on each side hurts for somebody just starting out. Energy transfer nodes are also nice, but they have limits with how much energy can pass through them until they are upgraded quite a bit with mining and speed upgrades. ~Rawrz

All im trying to do is transfer (quite a bit, prob 500mj/tick)ross 2000 blocks to this massive oil field i found. I have 10 pumps i plan to attempt to run and tons of tanks to fill them, from there im planning to put the energy back into my quarry farm to power them, cause the stirling engines just dont cut it. Ive used tesseracts before, but never heard of a p2p. Link?

They're actually relatively new. I've used them to get power from my nuke age they have no current top out which makes them nice to transfer quad extreme voltage ;) http://ae1.ae-mod.info/P2P-Tunnel/ that's all I really have on them in written down form. ~Rawrz

ive alays hated AE for everything else but their chests, the crafting and sorting and stuff is too darn complicated, and delving into that is not worth my tie twhen i can do it just as effectively*and cheaper) with a diamond pipe and logistics pipes, NEway..looks pretty easy, actually. Ill try that, and if it works, ill use it, thanks

the tesseracts didnt work with straight MJ(duh) and the AE is just so darn complicated, i went on their wiki, and its pretty gross. Im gonna try powerconverters for the Redstone flux idea now.

The p2p aren't bad. Quantum bridges on each side then take a memory card and shift click it on your input tunnel then click it on your export tunnels.

Is it? It should be 1 MJ = 10 RF and vice versa...

I find Logistics Pipes more complicated than AE.

 

 

(But that's just me.)

I've only ever used AE for high tier storage. NEI and the question mark shift click plus a crafting table that has access to all of your storage, makes for easy crafting without a MAC if that's your problem. Though I do agree, ME chests are sweet!

Yeah, we voided some cobble because we got to the cap of a deep storage unit :X btw, sakura wood is amazing for biofuel/steam production. It give so many saplings and wood per tree. We have 10 steam boilers running off of one farm of them and then a whole biofuel/ethanol system and have all that left over still.
