Employee Welfare
One way of determining energy levels in the workplace is to get a feel of the state of employees' welfare in the organization. This would mean paying particular attention to gripes and grouses that you may notice among employees or asking them about what problems they face working in the organization. Through getting a sense of whether your employees are happy or not working in your organization, you will be able to brainstorm measures to reduce the grouses of the employees and thereby increase the levels of energy in the workplace.

Five Ways to Determine Energy in Your Workplace
Another way of determining energy in the workplace is to observe how employees who have been assigned with leadership responsibilities carry them out. Those assigned to lead in projects should be motivated and should be able to motivate their team members to perform to the best of their abilities. If the team seems to be able to work independently with no additional supervision, then you can conclude that energy levels are high or sufficient to reap productivity. However, if the leader and the team perpetually miss deadlines, then it is a sign that energy levels may be low and would have to be addressed.
Effective Teamwork
Another way to determine energy level in the workplace is to see if teamwork is strong. When employees are motivated and happy to be working with each other, it will show in the team spirit they display in trying to execute a task. When this is the case, you know that energy levels are at optimum within the workplace. However, if you notice that the team is unable to reach a consensus on issues and members of the team often seem to disagree with each other, then it is a signal that you need to do something about the existing energies within the workplace.
High Productivity
The levels of productivity are indication of the energies in the workplace. Where the productivity is high, it means that employees are sufficiently motivated and determined to perform to the best of their abilities. However, when energies are low or lacking, then it will show on the productivity of the staff. They will lack the determination to complete work on time and meet deadlines. Additionally, they may product shoddy work.
Motivation & Enthusiasm
Invariably, energy levels are related to level of motivation and enthusiasm. Where energy is high, the employees will be happier people overall and willing to be part of the organization and be involved in its affairs. They will be committed to ensuring the success and prosperity of the workplace. The converse would be where energy levels are low and staff is not psyched up about the importance of their contribution to the workplace. These attitudes are easily visible and can be used to determine how energetic the workplace is.
