Why WFH isn't always so green (4-Jul-07)
The electricity used by home PCs doubled between 2000 and 2005, according to the Energy Saving Trust. Consumption is forecast to grow a further 30% between 2006 and 2020 as users install higher-spec (and therefore more energy-intensive) machines. Home-working is often touted as a way of cutting CO2 emissions, but employees should take steps to reduce their power consumption. The difference between an energy-efficient PC with a ‘sleep’ mode and a PC left on 24x7 can be more than £100 per year in electricity. In 2005, 9% of the domestic electricity bill was due to PCs and their peripherals; by 2020, computers and other gadgets will account for 45% of electricity used in the home.
