Gold medal time here is 1:10:00 (1 hour 10 minutes).
Skip Fusion 1 - Fusion 2 unlocks when you have Garage 2 and Nanotech Facility).
Don't hurry with upgrading Social and Nature to max level - in order to build their final expansions your station must be rated 4.5 stars.
Use the repair glitch to save energy:
1. Build maintenance expansion (Garage, Hangar)
2. Set drones to 0
3. Turn off power (menu will close)
4. Open the menu again, set drones to maximum, don't turn the power on!
5. Exit menu

Let your money build up then upgrade your buildings when you have enough, it's best to upgrade power first because you need reserves to build new buildings.
It will take time but isn't too difficult so you can speed it up with speed levels, I did it on 5 most of the time.
This achievement doesn’t explicitly say it, but it requires completion of the Eight-Port Challenge with a gold medal time.
A great walkthrough from shalley303 can be found halfway down the page here.
*Previously unattainable, but now available with the most recent update.
Tips: When completing harder levels make sure you balance profit and power. having too much power sucks profit. Try to sell some power generators for more powerfull ones to keep the station rating high. Have all your ports on full appeal, 1st grade ports and cheaper and work the best for raising it. Make sure you shut off repair ports when they are not needed as they suck up power.
A very handy glitch for the entire game, and especially this scenario, is the aptly titled "Repair Glitch." It allows the repair ports to work while drawing no power. Simply set all of the ports to zero bots, shut it off and then set it to the maximum number of repair drones. The drones will come out and work for only the cost of the repairs.
