Energy Star
The notebook from Fujitsu Siemens Computers is designed to conserve
electricity by dropping to less than 8 W when it goes into standby/suspend
mode and to less than 3 W when it goes into OFF mode. With this level of
power management, the notebook qualifies for the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Energy Star Computers award.
The EPA estimates that computer equipment uses 5 % percent of all business electricity and that
this is growing rapidly. If all desktop PCs and peripherals enter a low-power mode when not in use,
the overall savings in electricity could amount to $ 2 milliard annually. These savings could also
prevent the emission of 20 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere - the equivalent of 5
million automobiles.
As an Energy Star Partner, Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH has determined that this product
meets the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.
