I know i will get bad scores for this but i hope that some will figure it out. Its actually easy just takes a while. In a few days i can put hints on forum unless someone who does finish puts a spoiler. (please do if you wish. )
How-to
1. Miniature base at the top left. One Pulse Cannon, one Beam (two if you like), four or five Reactors.
2. Export Beams to the middle, or next to the Spore Towers.
3. Fill CN with energy, move toward the lower-right. Build a Collector in the middle. Start on a Reactor. Move CN back to the original base.
4. Keep shuttling power until you have a few Reactors in the middle, or just build straight to the Spore Tower(s).
5. At some point, your CN will be more effective free-floating over the middle to keep power up from the local Reactor farm.
6. Nullify.
I got the above from the screenshot, then tested. It works.
I did something different which I think is a bit faster. But at close to 7 minutes I realized I wasn't going to beat EA's time so I stopped pausing. Next time I'll try squinting or sticking my tongue out to see if that helps.
