SAVE $55.

Take a minute to shut-down the computers in your office each evening after work instead of leaving them on continuously throughout the night and weekend.

Making this shift means each computer will run for about 6,500 fewer hours per year, equaling an energy savings of about $55 per computer. If every office computer in the country were to be turned off at night, U.S. businesses would save a total of nearly $3 billion per year in energy costs, and enough energy to shut-down eight coal-fired power plants.

Did You Know…?

There are about 108 million office computers used by businesses throughout the country.
50 percent of these computers are not regularly turned-off at night.
