  • The .cl views are an input to power/rail analysis, and the pwr.rpt file is an output, showing the power consumption of all the instances in your design. For static power analysis, the .cl views are not required, but they are needed for rail analysis. The SPEF has the RC info of the nets in your design, but the .cl views model the cells/blocks/IP in your design. Both are needed to get the complete picture. I hope that helps.
