These are all wildly different tools you've mentioned. I'd read up a bit more and understand what you need for your system. If you have an AMD CPU, the amd-pstate driver in kernel 6.6+ is supposed to give better power management capabilities than any other tool. This is a rapidly changing area of concern though, so that opinion may be changing month to month as TLP makes changes to take AMD kernel upstream changes in to consideration.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
