This is a weird question (again). But I know that Intel processor can go into a 
low power state when they are not being used. This is to reduce the power 
requirements based upon need (and to extend laptop battery time). So I was 
curious if the CPs, especially the unlicensed / unused, in a z9 or z10 would 
likewise be in a lower power state? After all, if I cannot use the CP for 
anything, why should it be using electricity?

Just a curiousity.

The answer is YES, all CPs are powered up.

Proof: power consumption does not depend on capacity model, it depends on number of books. In other words z10 2097-E12 701 consumes the same power as 2097-E12 712 or 710 + 2 ICF, etc. Been there measured that. Another confirmation would be power estimator available on Resourcelink. Oh, BTW: The "green" z10EC consumes 50% more power than z9EC (single book configurations).
Green is a color...
