Energy Settings for Windows Users

In attempts to reduce our energy consumption, we are hoping to implement some technological and behavior modifications to accomplish this goal.

Computers and Monitors

All computers and monitors should be shut off at night. Settings for sleep or hibernation should be set at the shortest possible time (recommended 20 minutes).

Verifying Your Energy Settings

1. From the Start Menu select Control Panels or Settings then Control Panels.
   
2. Open the Display Control Panel.
   
3. On the Screen Saver tab click the Power Button
4. On the Power Options Properties window set your preferred times.
