Sounds like a great set of ideas, i have not played through the entire P&N tech treee but i think that a base only component that acts like a supply base with the ability 'supply generation.' Could be available as a special tech combo for 2 types or for one. 'Gravitational Suppply Generator" or "Bio-Grav Supply Factory." Expensive seeing as it can offer remote supply until you get sufficent tech to have supply at infinite.

Name := Supply Generator
Description := Component that produces supplies
Pic Num := 117 (other prob)
Tonnage Space Taken := 500
Tonnage Structure := 250
Cost Minerals := 600
Cost Organics := 600
Cost Radioactives := 400
Vehicle Type := Base
Supply Amount Used := 0
Restrictions := None
General Group := Cargo
Family := 14
Roman Numeral := 1
Custom Group := 0
Number of Tech Req := 1
Tech Area Req 1 := Cargo
Tech Level Req 1 := 1
Number of Abilities := 1
Ability 1 Type := Supply Generation
Ability 1 Descr := Provides remote Supply generation
Ability 1 Val 1 := 0
Ability 1 Val 2 := 0
Weapon Type := None

Also, coudl do something similar for a spaceport.
