While the amount of power TVs consume in this state is tiny, it can still add up over the course of a year...
, the average modern TV is sucking up 58.5 watts while you’re using it and 1.3 watts while you leave it on standby.
And we’re just talking about regular 43-inch or 50-inch LCD TVs. If you’ve got a big 55-inch or 60-inch older plasma telly you’re going to be looking at much greater energy consumption. Suddenly, reaching back and switching the gadget off at the mains each night may not seem like such a bad idea.In fact, research from electricity and gas supplier Utilita has revealed the average UK household has 10 items left in standby, despite not being used regularly.
Archie Lasseter, sustainability lead at Utilita, said: ‘Standby mode is a real energy drainer – some items use the same amount of energy as when they’re switched on.
