Well if we're going to offer advice, mine would be -- provided efficiency and HQ distance make it profitable -- to build 2 bases on the fertile NW plains near the park. In addition to good rainfall and the nutrient special, the bases' solar collectors will get the advantage of the park's NW line of E. Mirrors. Bases also guarantee the E.M.'s are within your territory -- they don't work otherwise.
I'd also make sure to upgrade all units at the park's monoliths so as to eventually exhaust them, making room for solar collectors.
As for the park's construction, it seems to me to represent a mentality that formers are cheap [to support] but crawlers and territory are expensive. You've spent a lot of former-time raising each square to 3000m and abutting the park with E.M.'s which only add 1-2 energy each. This is not necessarily a criticism; if formers are cheap, territory expensive, and build queues in high demand, it's the smart thing to do. But ... don't forget the aquifers. The drilling of aquifers would seem to align with your strategy of squeezing everything you can from the smallest possible space.
If the pressure on build queues eases you might consider replacing some of those underperforming E.M.'s with solars. Energy / area will increase at the cost of reduced energy / harvester.
