I wonder if my system is good or bad. My server needs 0.1kWh.

Is there a (Linux) command I can run to check my power consumption?
If you have a server with out-of-band/lights-out management such as iDRAC (Dell), iLO (HPe), IPMI (generic, Supermicro, and others) or equivalent, those can measure the server’s power draw at both PSUs and total.
If you have a laptop/something that runs off a battery,
upower
Get a Kill-a-Watt meter.
Or smart sockets. I got multiple of them (ZigBee ones), they are precise enough for most uses.
