Green Software Lab made a “set of tools for energy consumption analysis of programming languages, using Computer Language Benchmark Game”:  
[https://github.com/greensoftwarelab/Energy-Languages](https://github.com/greensoftwarelab/Energy-Languages)  
Since Julia has some of those benchmarks already implemented, it would be nice to analyze its energy consumption.  
Would anyone like to step in to do it?

Julia has, at least, the same benchmarks ([https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/test/perf/shootout](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/test/perf/shootout)) as Python ([https://github.com/greensoftwarelab/Energy-Languages/tree/master/Python](https://github.com/greensoftwarelab/Energy-Languages/tree/master/Python))…
