Could we create a server wide power plant? That way we only have to connect a receiver to collect power from it?

Technically speaking not easily. The easiest way to do it would be to convert all the power to BC energy and send it via a conductive teleport pipe, then convert it back at the end point. The problem with that method is first its only 85% efficient at most due to the conversion machines. Second the teleport pipes are player specific, meaning the same person would need to place both the transmitter and receiver ends of the pipe. I also believe there are maximum transfer rates through the pipe (the pipe itself uses some of the power for the transfer) and trying to push too much power through one pipe causes explosions so there's an upper limit there as well.
Then we also run into the issues of people using a lot of the power but not contributing to the power plant materials.
