Looking at germicidal bulbs at 1000bulbs.com, the highest wattage bulb they have is 65 watts [1]. Most are well under that.

Looking at random in-duct systems, it looks like they range from 1 to 10 or so bulbs with the later being for commercial buildings. Home systems seem to lean toward 1 or 2 bulbs of maybe 20ish watts or so total. This site [2] says typically $15-30 per year energy cost
