how to measure power consumption of a circuit in cadence spectre

Hi,

I would like to know how can I estimate the power consumption of a circuit say an inverter circuit in cadence environment. I searched through the internet, but couldn't find any suitable doc that is helpful in this regard. I am looking for the steps required for power estimation.

Thanks & Regards,

Indrajit
