You're going to need a monitor as well.

    I have a PaPiRus ePaper eInk e.g. https://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/Pi%20Supply%20PDFs/PaPiRus_ePaper_Web.pdf and even though I don't know the watts for a refresh but I assume it's one of the lowest solution you can use.

    PS: FWIW if you don't refresh the display can keep the information on for months, if not years.

    Eink displays are pretty awesome for this sort of thing, I repuposed a kobo ereader as a household info display and it worked nicely. Those PaPiRus screens look easier to interface with, but a little small for reading wikipedia articles. They'd do in a pinch, but the eyestrain would have me looking for a bigger solution.
