Local CoolingThe CO2 emissions from just 15 computers are equivalent in energy terms to the gas consumption used by one car!  In total, more than 30 billion kilowatts of energy is wasted because many of us simply forget to shut down our computers when we?re not using them. With a more efficient power save mode the PC user community can make a real difference to Global Warming!

 

This fact conceived the idea for LocalCooling from the Uniblue Labs team. Even though PC power consumption is a small fraction of total energy use, it is still big enough to be a contributory factor. Local Cooling is our contribution to the fight against global warming. It?s a way for the PC user community to come together and make a difference today!

 
The 100% FREE LocalCooling application automatically optimize your PC's power consumption.
By adjusting the power mode settings our advanced algorithms will predict how much you will save based on past PC usage and statistical data. Every time LocalCooling saves power by either turning of your screen, putting your hard drive to sleep when not used or shutting down your PC when you are away your savings stats will start to grow. Download LocalCooling today and optimize your PC's energy efficiency in minutes.

  After using this program for three months I did not benefit or use less energy than the "hybernate" and energy savings modes in Windows XP.

It also consumed extra processing & memory that the native Windows programs do not.

While this may work with older machines...

It did not benefit from program.

But great thought on older machines.

  I've been using this programme for over a year.
Occasionally it pips very quietly and shuts the computer down.
I would never have learned how to tweak the energy-saving settings on my own software, so this thing is saving me heat and money
