Don't Standby, Conserve.
What is Standby Power?
Standby Power is the electricity consumed by electronic appliances when not
in use. Appliances such as your TV, DVD player, game console or stereo system do
not completely turn off when you press the power button, instead they remain in
standby mode, drawing a small amount of power even when you are not using them!
With an abundance of electronic appliances in your home, the combined effect of
these silent power consumers adds up fast.
Figures with regards to Power and Standby Power consumption:
- Annual European Electricity Consumption is 765,000,000,000 kWh
- Energy Consumption annually grows by nearly 2% or 15,300,000,000 kWh
- 112,000,000,000 kWh is accounted for by Standby Power
- £0.13 is the cost of 1 kWh in the UK ....
- Standby Power is costing Europe a mind-blowing £14.51 billion
