Abstract

The combined energy consumption of US televisions and videocassette recorders was about 40TWh per year in 1998, corresponding to 3.6% of national residential electricity consumption. The average household television energy consumption was about 310kWh per year, 23% of which was used while the units were not active. The average household videocassette recorder energy use was about 100kWh per year, 95% of which was used while the units were not active.
