How much power? How would Julia stack up?

Interesting comparison: https://thenewstack.io/which-programming-languages-use-the-least-electricity/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=topic+optin&utm_campaign=awareness&utm_content=20211106+prog+nl&mkt_tok=MTA3LUZNUy0wNzAAAAGAlL5XV7i5iCbcJu3TcHwHQirkndGGpWlL-301luS5qiRvmKQL2HtD457Toi81aPVEIidj9XxsNQWaPWG5vMDP7Ow04Lvkh9mkr1rISX43Gx4ttg

There is this comparison which includes Julia (there it ranked well):

Is there actually any expected platform dependency for power consumption ( ARM, AMD64,Linux Win… ).?
For the tests they used a Linux Ubuntu Server 16.10 with 16GB RAM and an Intel(R) Core™ i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz only.

I’m thinking it would be based on how well a laguage exploits archetectuer, so something like RISC wich is a type of assembler, and works with ARM would be near the top. But, Julia should be high for high level languages.
