Electricity Costs
The college currently spends about $0.12 per kwh (including the increase in peak usage assuming the device will be on during the peak usage time)
That comes out to be about $1.05 per watt per year. Therefore, a computer which uses 185W with its monitor costs the college about $160/year more than a laptop which uses 15W if the computers are left on all the time. If they are used 33% of the time (8 hours a day) it costs $56 per year more.
