Ah, I got a bit lazy to do a install file, but here are some important things:

You need to run power_gadget with root privileges, or else you will get the "Init failed!" error.
The README file says you should have the msr and cpuid modules loaded. The powergadget.conf file inside modules-load.d will probably take care of this for you on every boot.
