Think outside the box, the singularity engine is already a completely fictional thing so it's not like creative liberties cannot be taken.
With the TEG there are ways to fuck around and increase power output and tweak things to your liking. Who's to say a similar system can't be devised for the singularity engine using some fun pseudo-science game mechanics?
For instance, the whole array system could have actual plasma hookup lines and players could have to use their knowledge of toxins to mix a perfect combination of plasma and water (or something, this is just an example) to supply the array with the proper mixture to maximize the energy they produce since IIRC they do some fuckery with plasma and black hole radiation to produce energy. If the user makes a weak plasma mixture, the energy output will be low. If they make the mixture too volatile, it produces too much heat or something.
