I am assuming that the article considers the cases where the CPU is at
full load in all the cases, with the program having been implemented
with different programming languages. The faster the program is done,
the less overall energy it will require. If a C program does the job
in 1 second and a PHP program does it in 30 seconds, it's obvious that
the C program is going to consume less energy for the same task.

So it's not a question of "how many % of the CPU can I use with this
programming language", but "how long do I need to use the CPU in
order to perform this task".
