you can make AI only components. For example I made some monster components that can only fit into modded monster slots. They don't show correctly on long range scans (like custom slots don't show in the spacedock), but they are functional and used by the AI.
If the monsters are killed the player can pick up the monster body parts, but they cannot be used on a player ship, because it doesn't have the correct slots.
For P&N it might help to give enemy purchase hulls extra built-in energy regeneration, so they don't have to place so many generators.
