This report presents evidence of the growing use of laptop computers. Because of their inherent portability, accounting for laptops is difficult, especially during an after-hours survey, but our conservative estimate is that laptops comprise at least 10% of the non-server computers in our sample. We also estimate that laptops outnumbered desktop computers at two sites: one medium and one large office. To the extent that relatively energy-efficient laptops are replacing desktop computers, significant electrical energy is saved. However, more work is. | LBNL-53729 After-hours Power Status of Office Equipment and Inventory of Miscellaneous Plug-Load Equipment Judy A. Roberson Carrie A. Webber Marla C. McWhinney Richard E.
