家用电子产品

令人惊讶的是, up to 75% of all electricity used by consumer electronics is while they are in standby mode. Most people assume when they turn off their equipment it is completely off. 实际上, it is in the standby mode – the mode necessary for the use of remote controls, 时钟, 通道存储器和其他功能.

根据能量.gov, standby power accounts for 5 to 10% of residential energy use.

日常小贴士

  • Turn off entertainment systems and computer equipment when not in use. Minimize energy use when electronic devices are in standby mode by enabling power save settings.
  • To eliminate energy use when devices are in standby mode, plug them into a smart strip or power strip with on/off capabilities
  • Look for the ENERGY STAR® label when selecting home electronics. ENERGY STAR-certified products use less energy than conventional models while still providing the features consumers want.
