kWh isn’t a good metric of computational output though. You want to encourage people to do more useful work for you; if that means they should tune their code for a fancy GPU, then kWh probably won’t correlate (a single package server CPU is about 145W, a server class GPU about 300W, but the GPU usually performs way more compute).
