Laptops vs. Desktops: Which Is More Energy-Efficient?

Laptop computers consume up to 80 percent less electricity than desktop computers and get by on between one-fifth and one-third as much energy. Laptop computers may peak at a maximum draw of only 60 watts, whereas common desktops may peak around 175 watts. And of course when purchasing, always buy energy star products to ensure energy efficiency.


Faculty, staff and students please share your sustainable ideas for our weekly tip to j.coons@hvcc.edu.
