China's PC power consumption of nearly 20 billion degrees eat half the Three Gorges Power Station

Yesterday, Chinese Computer Industry Association report released by the end of 2004, China's PC has a capacity of 52 million 990 thousand units, the average annual consumption of nearly 20 billion degrees, equivalent to the Three Gorges hydropower generating capacity of half year, for the first half of Beijing needs. According to the normal state of energy saving, the computer can save electricity more than 100 thousand kwh per day, equivalent to a small thermal power plant.

According to estimates, a Pentium 4 computer power consumption per hour is about 0.15 degrees, that is, the average working hours per computer about power consumption of 1 degrees.

It is reported that, at present, founder, the Great Wall, Tsinghua Tongfang and other products have been awarded the Certification Center certification of energy saving, but most of the products on the computer market is still in a state of no energy.
