REFRIGERATOR ENERGY STAR refrigerators use 20% less energy than standard models.

If every dorm room at UNH switched one compact refrigerator to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual energy savings would be the same as taking 35 cars off the road!
  • Savings in energy costs would be over $23,000 annually!
LIGHT BULBS ENERGY STAR qualified Compact Fluorescent bulbs use 66% less energy than a standard incandescent bulb and last up to 10 times longer.

If every dorm room replaced one standard light bulb with an ENERGY STAR rated one:

  • The annual energy savings would be the same as taking 23 cars off the road!
  • Savings in energy costs would be $15,000 annually!
LIGHTING ENERGY STAR lighting fixtures use one-third the energy of standard lighting.

If every dorm room at UNH switched one lighting fixture (desk or floor) to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual savings would be the same as taking 24 cars off the road!
  • There would be 281,370 pounds less Carbon Dioxide emitted—enough Carbon Dioxide to fill 33,764,400 party balloons!
  • Savings in energy costs would be $16,000 annually!
EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY External power adapters (battery chargers) convert electricity to power electronic products, like MP3 players, cell phones, camcorders, etc. They continue to use energy when plugged in but not in use. Un-plug your power adapters/chargers when you’re not using them! It will reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Look for recently labeled ENERGY STAR models, which use 35% less energy than standard models.
DVD ENERGY STAR DVD players use half the power of conventional models.

If all dorm rooms at UNH switched one DVD player to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual energy savings would be the same as taking 74 cars off the road!
  • 849,420 pounds less Carbon Dioxide would be emitted each year—enough Carbon Dioxide to fill 101,930,400 party balloons!
STEREO ENERGY STAR stereos and home audio equipment use 65% less electricity than standard equipment.

If all dorms at UNH switched one stereo to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual energy savings would be the equivalent of taking 20 cars off the road!
  • 226,500 pounds less Carbon Dioxide would be emitted each year—enough to fill 27,181,440 party balloons!
  • It would save over $12,000 annually!
VCR ENERGY STAR VCR’s consume 75% less energy than standard models.

If all dorm rooms at UNH switched on VCR to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual energy savings would be the same as taking 80 cars off the road!
  • It would save over $52,000 annually!
CORDLESSPHONE ENERGY STAR cordless phones use about one-third of the energy.

If all dorm rooms at UNH switched one phone to ENERGY STAR:

  • The annual energy savings would be the same as taking 7 cars off the road!
  • 89,942 pounds less Carbon Dioxide would be emitted each year—enough Carbon Dioxide to fill 7,128,000 party balloons!
  • It would save almost $5,000 annually!
PRINTER Printers that have earned the ENERGY STAR can cut the equipment's electricity use by over 60%. Many ENERGY STAR qualified machines can print double-sided pages, reducing paper costs by as much as $30 a year.
COMPUTER An ENERGY STAR qualified computer uses 70% less electricity than computers without enabled power management features. Over its lifetime, ENERGY STAR qualified equipment in a single home office can save enough electricity to light an entire home for more than 4 years.
