Answer:

A laptop uses between 50 and 100 W/hour when it is being used, depending on the model. A laptop that is on for eight hours a day uses between 150 and 300 kWh and emits between 44 and 88 kg of CO2 per year. In stand-by mode the power consumption of both a desktop and a laptop falls to about a third.
