I'd think you could design whatever systems are suitable for your campaign. Some variations:

The brain must be submerged in an oxygenated liquid medium and provided with nutrients that can be sprinkled into the medium. The Body runs on moon dust power and is free to maintain while on Luna or other moon.

The brain is supported intravenously with transfused blood at a hideous cost. Additionally, support staff must treat the vessel holding the brain frequently to avoid surface scaring and infection. The body must be tethered or will power down in five minutes.

The brain and body both run off organic matter. A molecular dis/assembler contained in the cyborg digests food into components and assembles them into the required nutrients and fuel. Some models allow the excretion of compounds, restricted by CR, as needed.

I'm pretty sure it works however you want it to.
