Battery is a built-in, not a plug-in. (It's already there.)

Plug-ins are generally in ports. 
cd /usr/ports ; make search key=gkrellm | grep -E "^[P|I]".

Note that plug-ins are for either gkrellm or gkrellm2. gkrellm is ancient
and uses gtk V1. gkrellm2 is current and that is the one you should
install. Plug-ins are specific to one or the other, so be sure that you
use a plug-in that depends on gkrellm-2.2.5. Most plug-ins are available
for both and most are clearly labeled as to which they are.
