How much energy do products use in Standby mode?
Although the standby power consumption of most devices is relatively small, generally ranging from 0.5 to over 20 watts of electricity, the number of devices in our homes and businesses drawing standby power is large and growing — a trend that is turning standby power into a big problem in Canada, as in other parts of the world. To make matters worse, though many of the features enabled by standby power are useful, electricity consumption in standby mode is often far greater than necessary. For some products, much of this power is wasted by inefficient product design.
