Due to the current crisis I've bought a cheap device to measure power usage at the outlet.
Code:
idle compiling off(standby)
iMac G5 72.4W 97W 3.3W 2.5GB RAM default screen brightness
Peg2 G4 54.5W 57.2W 1.5W 1GB, Radeon 9250, some old HDD, passive PSU
22" LG 35W ---- 0.5W 1680x1050
Plan to add more PPC and non PPC-HW later, but the shocking result atm is that it makes more sense to run the iMacG5 standalone than running a Pegasos_G4 and an ancient TFT with similar specs.
Measured the Efika years ago: https://via.bckrs.de/MorphOS/bench_en.html (sd card should lower the uptake quite a bit)
Also on that site, measurements for the mac mini and pegasos1.
I can confirm your conclusions from the total energy uptake POV as written in this thread already https://morph.zone/modules/newbb_plus/viewtopic.php?forum=11&topic_id=12759&viewmode=flat&sortorder=0&start=25

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
