If one could find the deepest void in space, could the energy in a set volume be measured calculated?

Edit.

Is this a nonsense question? i will try again if you think so.
 
The energy density of the dark energy is extremely small and, at the moment, it's only feasible to measure its effects on very large scales. A great many cosmological studies are currently devoted to measuring these effects (e.g. type Ia supernovae, gravitational lensing surveys).
