Blockchain Options Study?

Noting the energy consumption of bitcoin[1] I'm looking for a qualitative
study about the various forms of DLTs and the energy profile of them.
Ideally, something that could illustrate in graphs, the energy usage
profile of various forms of DLTs, and thereby provide a floor-price
attribution consideration (based on energy usage); as may in-turn relate
also to the functional characteristics of the DLT type.

With respect to micro-payments infrastructure solutions definitions - this
becomes a critical qualitative consideration, as it wouldn't make any sense
to send revenue distributions at a higher energy cost, than the face-value
of the revenue distribution itself.

There's a number of DLT alternatives available in the marketplace
generally. Interactively to this problem is the legal frameworks that may
relate to 'blockchain' rather than 'DLT's', of which blockchain becomes a
subset.  These jurisdictional characteristics may in-turn preclude some
alternatives, where others are able to be used legally within that region.
This in-turn also relates to constructs through which the solution is made
available to the market.

A report by Data61[2] and ACS[3] have been highlighted to be today.  I'm
looking for more links & related insights.  I'd prefer to find an online
resource that has studied these considerations, however if they've not been
done - then perhaps, a means to discover how and who might be best suited
to doing it.

Tim.
