ENERGY STAR Logo

Electronic products are responsible for more than 25% of household electricity use. Home electronics use energy even when they are turned off. ENERGY STAR® qualified electronic products use 60% less energy when turned off compared to standard models.

By choosing ENERGY STAR, you are helping prevent global warming and promote cleaner air without sacrificing the product quality and performance you expect.

For maximum energy efficiency, plug all electronics into a power strip and turn it off or unplug it when not in use. This step is part of a bigger initiative known as Power Management, which is the practice of effectively managing the energy use in your home by using specific tools and implementing simple actions. Doing so will reduce both the power you consume as well as your energy bills.
