Leaving an average 200W PC and CRT monitor constantly switched on, perhaps for convenience or IT administration purposes, costs in excess of £8 ($15) per month. That is about 0.7 metric tonnes of CO2 per year.

While LCD technology reduces overall consumption by 25%, running higher specification hardware easily offsets this. UK Government studies show £150 ($281) million worth of electricity is wasted like this in English offices every year. With power management solutions from 1E, companies can save more than £45 ($80) per PC per year and reduce emissions into the environment. In an office of 100 PCs, annual energy cost savings could be around £4,500 from the equipment alone, and between £7,000 and £9,000 if sited in air conditioned offices. Check the Online Wasted Energy and CO2 Calculator to see the potential impact of centralised power management in your office.
