By that metric, the electricity is only part of it. The cost of building the harsware, the cost of building the roof and walls for the datacentre, the cost of clearing the land, cost of humans maintaining the hardware, the cost of all the labour making the linux kernel, libc6, etc, etc. Lots of additionals here too.
