[HESCO] Smart Phones are energy efficient!

[Gililland, Jenny]

Dear HESCO members,
OSU is trying to find out if any of the other colleges or universities are involving students in energy management efforts through contests or other events or activities.  If you have any information to share, especially if you have a Residential Life department/student housing, we would welcome your ideas.
Respectfully,

I thought this was a fun article.   Glad to know I am being energy efficient at home by using my smart phone.



As the world's interest in the iPhone 5 mushroomed in the weeks leading up to its launch, analysts at Opower - whose software helps homeowners make energy-efficient choices - wanted to see how smartphones measure up with other consumer electronics in energy use.

"Smartphones emerged as a clear winner in terms of energy efficiency compared to the devices we have historically used to consume entertainment and communicate with each other," said Opower's Barry Fischer, who wrote the in-depth blog post on the subject.
