Well just be sure to remove the GPU, don't install a GUI and turn on every power saving option on the BIOS / disable hardware you don't need etc. If you've a watt-meter it will make the task easy as you'll be able to see how much power you can cut back with BIOS tweaks. Sometimes (but not always) even disabling CPU cores helps.
