Most efficient miners used today are similar to Bitmain S21 Pro, it uses 3510 Watts (joules per second) to generate 234 Terahashes per second. At current difficulty it would take one of these miners 54 years to mine a block, or you would need 54 miners to mine a block in 1 year. Multiplied by the wattage it takes 5.9 Terajoules to mine a block, or 1.91 terajoules to mine 1 bitcoin. The bomb in hiroshima released 63 TJ of energy, or about 33 bitcoin
Just an interesting calculation I made that serves no practical purpose but is fun to think about.
