not the last balance change as such, but the lack of follow ups to move further into the direction it was heading.
back on topic - the power consumption of turrets can be scanned with a chassis-scanner and calculated from the displayed data, or simply tested with a shielded bot set as target, while watching the colony managements "last energy usage" per building.
If i remember correctly, repair nodes and aura emitter list their power consumption "per buffed target" in their info on colony management without need to scan.
harder to aquire are infos like how much of the energy resource is consumed per full-power cycle of the well, and how much does it matter anyway when you put several t3 batteries parallel to your backbone connections, so you can support a a full defense array for several days without running out of AP, with the current maximum number of attackers you could expect.
