You can view a graph that is published to the web client Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) dashboard from Window > Dashboard > PUE/DCiE Dashboard in the desktop client
It displays the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), which is a measure of the ratio of the total amount of power used by the data center facility to the power used by the IT load.
Your PUE is measured as an average from midnight to midnight, giving you a Power Usage Effectiveness summary for the previous 24 hours.
Note: You can toggle the energy efficiency metric between PUE and DCiE in Tools > Preferences > General.
