Monitors / Displays
ENERGY STAR® qualified computer monitors/displays use from 25‚Äì60% less electricity than standard models, depending on how they are used.
Businesses that use ENERGY STAR enabled office equipment may realise additional savings on air conditioning and maintenance.
Over its lifetime, equipment in a single home office (e.g., computer, monitor, printer, and fax) that meet the new ENERGY STAR specifications will save more than $115 over the life of the products, and even more if you don't already have ENERGY STAR qualified equipment.
Computer monitors must meet stringent requirements in On, Sleep, and Off Modes in order to earn the ENERGY STAR.
- In On Mode, the maximum allowed power varies based on the computer monitor’s resolution.
- In Sleep Mode, computer monitor models must consume 2 watts or less.
- In Off Mode, computer monitor models must consume 1 watt or less.
ENERGY STAR monitors/displays soon to be more efficient
A new ENERGY STAR specification for Monitors/Displays (less than 30 inches diagonal) and digital picture frames will become effective October 30, 2009.
Hints and tips
Enabling your monitor's power management features and turning it off at night not only saves energy, but also helps computer monitor equipment run cooler and last longer.
