A Quarry uses roughly 9Mj / tick to operate at peak efficiency ...

So we can assume if 2 combustion engines (in green state, burning fuel) can run the quarry building at maximum efficiency, they probably generate 4.5Mj + in that state.

(im thinking 5, because if i turn one off, the quarry is going ... but not quite at a full pace)

Fuel them with TP pipes - drive that with redstone engines ... problem sorted, fully automated.
