ecobutton is the latest power saving device for your computer. The eco button is designed to reduce computer electricity consumption and nationwide, could prevent millions of tonnes of CO2 from being wasted. The ecobutton will save electricity when used regularly. There are many times each day when you take a break but your computer is left running idle, users generally don't like to use the sleep or hibernate modes due to the time it often takes for computers to restart. ecobutton solves this problem. With one simple click of the ecobutton your computer is instantly put into a deep power saving ecomode which turns off your monitor and all unnecessary processes. Then, when you return to your machine, simply hit any key and your computer instantly returns to where your left off. No loss of electricity, no wasted CO2. Computers and monitors can account for half of the electricity used in a typical office. A single monitor left switched on overnight can use the same energy as a laser printer producing 800 A4 printed copies, - and don't be fooled by a screensaver – the computer is still working at full power to run this! There are some 10m office PCs in Britain and 1.8m are regularly left on overnight or all weekend, according to a recent study on energy wastage. This means that around 1.5 billion kWh of energy is wasted by computers and monitors being left on – that's approximately £115million wasted in the UK every year! Convert this into carbon and we waste around 7000,000 tonnes of carbon due to workers not switching off computers and monitors in the UK (that's 10% of the UK climate change levy target)! All this office computer waste can be easily avoided by adopting simple energy saving policies which are supported by energy saving devices like ecobutton™. Nationally, with one small click of the ecobutton 7000,000 tonnes of office and home PC wasted carbon could be avoided. |
