报告指出,“在日益数字化的各大经济体中,电力需求正在以惊人的速度增长。”总部设在巴黎的国际能源机构发现,各类设备2013年大约消耗了616太瓦时电能。问题在于,其中大部分电能是设备处于待机模式时消耗的。
“The problem is not that these devices are often in standby mode, but rather that they typically use much more power than they should to maintain a connection and communicate with the network,” said Maria Van der Hoeven, the IEA’s executive director, in a statement.
国际能源机构总干事玛丽亚o范德胡芬在声明中称:“问题不在于这些设备往往处于待机模式,而在于它们维持联网状态、与网络通信所耗费的电能过多。”
The IEA also said that the idea of the standby option on a devise is a “misnomer.” While it “suggests that the device has gone to sleep and is almost off,” the agency found that’s not the case. “In reality, most network-enabled devices draw as much power in this mode as when activated to perform their main tasks,” theagency explained.
国际能源机构还表示,设备上的“待机”选项“名不副实”。“待机”听起来感觉设备已经休眠,几乎跟关机差不多。但国际能源机构发现,事实并非如此。该机构表示:“事实上,大多数可联网设备在待机模式下与被激活执行主要任务时的能耗一样大。”
