CryptoNight algo coins' power-cost is lowest in all of them.

I would expect Cuckoo Cycle to be (significantly) lower, since it's memory-latency bound rather than compute bound...

Can you download the source code from https://github.com/tromp/cuckoo and measure the power-usage while running e.g.
Code:
  make speedup
?
