Apple Silicon energy monitor — via zeus-ml[apple] or CPU-time estimation.

Classes

AppleEnergyMonitor 

AppleEnergyMonitor(poll_interval_ms: int = 50)

Bases: EnergyMonitor

Apple Silicon energy monitor.

Prefers zeus-ml[apple] AppleSiliconMonitor when available. Falls back to a CPU-time-based estimation using the chip's known TDP, which gives order-of-magnitude correct energy readings without root.
