This doesn't make sense to me. Energy is a quantity, it exists
independently of time. An "instantaneous energy use" only makes sense
if you tell in what (presumably very small) amount of time the energy
was used... and then what you are measuring is not an energy but a
power, for which we already have an interface. Please clarify.
I agree. May I suggest "cumulative energy use"?
