1. Power Consumption PC and Server PROJECT Monitor power management (MPM) can save $15 to $32 per monitor annually by placing your inactive monitors into a low-power sleep mode. Computer power management (CPM) places inactive computers (CPU, hard drive, etc.) into a low- power sleep mode, which can save $27 to $47 per desktop computer annually.

8. Connect your appliances into the Kill A Watt™, and assess how efficient they are. A large LCD display counts consumption by the Kilowatt-hour just like utility companies. You can figure out your electrical expenses by the hour, day, week, month, even an entire year. Monitor the quality of your power by displaying Voltage, Line Frequency, and Power Factor. Test with Kill A WATT™
