According to the EPA, a computer meeting the new ENERGY
STAR® specifications will use between 20% and 50% less energy
depending on how it is used. If all U.S. household and businesses
replaced old computers with new ENERGY STAR® qualified
models, we would save more than $1.8 billion in energy costs over
the next five years and avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent
to more than 2.7 million cars.
If every computer purchased by businesses next year met the new
ENERGY STAR® requirements, businesses would save more than
$210 million over the lifetime of those models. That is equivalent to
lighting 120 million square feet of U.S. commercial building space
each year.
During 2006 Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR®, saved
about $14 billion dollars on their utility bills and avoided
greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 25 million
vehicles.
