Is the "Volt" a measure of force or energy consumption?
The volt is neither a measure of force or of energy consumption.  That's why it is its own unit.  

The term electromotive force is a metaphor for voltage as a force, because it explains current going through a resistance by analogy to water under pressure going through a pipe.  But a volt is not a force.

A volt is a measure of electric potential, and electric potential is it's own thing.  Any analogy to any familiar process will have flaws, so if you hold too tightly to them you'll be confused.  But (to go and use a different metaphor) a volt is a measure of how "far" some charge has been "lifted" in an electric field.  It is analogous to, but not the same as lifting a rock in a gravity field.  If you lift a 1 kg rock 1 meter at the surface of the earth (where \$g=9.8 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s^2}}\$ acceleration), you will have increased it's energy by \$9.8 \mathrm{J}\$.  But the acceleration due to gravity isn't a force, or an energy -- it's an acceleration due to gravity, and if you take mass to be analogous to charge, then it is height that is analogous to voltage.

So gravity is a fundamental force, and the gravitational potential within a gravity field is "height".  Electrostatic attraction (or repulsion) is a fundamental force, and the electric potential within an electric field is voltage, or EMF.
