I presume that is 108 watts? 108kW is enough to heat a house to sauna type levels in a few minutes.

How hard is it to check figures before posting an article?

Does the author of this article even understand electrical energy measurements at all?

It's great that Energy Star is trying to push for more and more efficient TVs, but what's the point of basically making it to where big TVs won't be Energy Star certified? No one's going to buy a smaller TV just because it doesn't have the sticker on it. All this does is make it to where none of the bigger TVs are certified, which means people won't know which are more efficient and which aren't. It's counterproductive.

During the production of a LCD pennal there is emmision of Nitrogen trifluoride:

This is a greenhouse gas with a very high GWP.

Does anyone know how this is handled during the production of this (and other) TV (/Monitor)?

Another idiotic scheme for defining what is 'best'. The numbers should be based around screen area and not give a max power consumption.

I agree it's a problem to not have *some* certification for larger TVs - but the fact is you can't just base it on Watts/screen area because it ends up just being green washing. Yes a 200 inch screen that uses 110 Watts is efficient - but it's still potentially a pretty big energy user. Part of the problem needs to be solved by more efficient technology, and some of it needs to be solved by behaviour changes.

Sounds like too much misdirected government intrusion. Govt decides big TV's are inefficient and pretty soon they will go the way of the incadescent lightbulb.

First of all, a lot of people don't care about energy consumption. I do, but most people could care less. Second of all it wont matter if tv's are certified or not, in the end all of it will be powered with solar and wind. So it won't matter. Solar and wind power are way of the future. Energy stickers will mean nothing in the future because There will be no energy consumption. Sun and wind is FREE!
