Peltier devices are power hungry, but the peltier size for cooling a ccd chip would be very small so I would imagine that the power consumption wouldn't be all that excessive. Power supply requirements from the specs on the Artimus site say the camera needs 12V@0.5A and 5V@2.5A and I would imagine they are maximum values, I suspect that the current draw would be less once the CCD is cooled.
