Picture: Sharp Unveil Low Energy LCD TV
At just 1.1″ (29mm) thick this prototype LCD television from Sharp on display in Tokyo, Japan this week is the thinnest in the world. Not only is the television slim, its power consumption is the lowest of any LCD in the world. As I previously stated in High Powered Gadgets Threaten Energy we need to press forward with advancements in technology ensuring that efficiency and reduction in power consumption is a key focus rather than the current trend of “bigger is better” and graduated increases in energy consumption. If you are thinking of purchasing a new television check for environmentally friendly tellies at the Energy Saving Trust.
