Note that this tool is still in the alpha stage so if the results are not what you would expect, keep that in mind. Version: 1.0 Alpha

In part from Joulemeter: VM, Server, Client, and Software Energy Usage - Microsoft Research

Joulemeter estimates the energy usage of a VM, computer, or software by measuring the hardware resources (CPU, disk, memory, screen etc) being used and converting the resource usage to actual power usage based on automatically learned realistic power models.

Joulemeter can be used for gaining visibility into energy use and for making several power management and provisioning decisions in data centers, client computing, and software design.

This is sweet, a great utility, results are quite surprising, will consider shutting down the PC's a bit more often now.
