Hey everyone pixelsee here.
The solar panels will only work during the day so be careful.
It can be powered with any type of buildcraft energy directly with either engines or through conductive pipes.
Using an energy link early in the game with a geothermal generator next to the energy link is a good idea.

The electrical engine is part of the forestry mod which is no longer part of tekkit for some reason or another.
However transparent blocks such as glass blocks or panes allow sunlight to pass through hence still allowing the panel to produce power.
There are many ways to power the quarry.
The peak quarry energy input is about 92 mj t full.
It performed that necessary conversion from eu to mj.
The quarry will run at any time it has power running into it.
I recommend moving over to mekanism for the digital miner.
Natively the quarry only accepts buildcraft s mj power however through the use of a converter industrial craft 2 s eu or redpower 2 s blutricity may be used.
It is far superior to the bc quarry as well as other quarry type.
Redstone engines are rather slow and with combustion engines there is a good chance you quarry will explode.
