Energy Saving Tip

Please TURN OFF  your PC's , A/C's  & Lights, before Leaving OFFICE .....    


- Abstract from speech By Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam  (Former President of India)

Most of us are used to doing one thing before leaving for the day from officen : Press Ctrl+Alt+ Del and leave to home happily.

That means your PC is still on.
One normal PC will consume 35 watts/hr.
Based on this we will do a small calculation.


For one week 24 X 7 = 168 Hrs.
of this if we consider that we are working for 68 hours,

then the PC is in sleeping mode for 100 Hrs a week.

For one month 4 (weeks) X 100 = 400 Hrs.
In a normal IT office, if we assume approximately 250 PCs are there,
250 * 400 = 1,00,000 Hrs  
 


So the power wasted in an office in a month is,
100000 X 35 = 3500 KWH or units.
 


If the charge per unit is Indian Rs. 6,

then totally the wastage value is approximately 21000 Indian rupees.



Here the sad thing is not the money loss to the company but the power loss to the country.

Apart from the loss to the country we need to think of the efforts people are putting for producing the power in the Mines, Thermal Stations, Hydro electric Stations, etc. If this is to continue, the cost of unit power will go up & at one stage we will not get power even if we are ready to pay any cost.

So before leaving to home take some time to shut down the PC's, A/C's & Lights and do some favour to the country and the organization.
