A computer system with system power consumption tracking and reporting is disclosed including a background task that determines a hardware configuration of the computer system and that detects new or novel hardware configurations. The background task updates data sets in the system power table that correspond to previously logged hardware configurations and creates new data sets in the system power table for the new or novel hardware configurations. The system power table logs indications of system power consumption for the corresponding hardware configurations as well as related information.
