Reduce the power consumption of your computer & peripherals.
DEAR FRIEND'S,
Turn off all computer equipment, printers, and scanners when not in use, especially at night and on weekends.
Laptops use only 1/4 the energy of a desktop. Purchase external keyboards and mice to improve ergonomic usability.
Flat screens use only 1/3 the energy and contain 1/10 the lead of traditional monitors. They also radiate less heat and last longer. The additional cost will pay for itself in energy savings.
When purchasing computers and peripherals, buy equipment certified by the EPA's Energy Star program ( if available in your country)and be sure to enable power management features when setting up equipment.
We can save a good amount of money per computer by activating power management .
Set your monitor to sleep when you are not using your computer for 15 minutes or longer. You can configure your computer to do this automatically through the Control Panel—Power Options. In some units, your IT staff may need to do this for you because of limited administrative rights for computer users.
So let's try it out iam sure it will work out you could save some amount on the above advice.
Regard's
Francis Daniel (BAHRAIN).
