Lenovo is committed to protecting the environment and keeping your energy costs low. And we're especially proud that the ThinkPad SL400 and SL500 earned an EPEAT Silver rating from the Green Energy Council. To earn a silver rating, the ThinkPad SL400 and SL500 had to pass a set of 23 required performance criteria and 50% of the optional criteria in 8 categories.
The new Energy Star 4.0 label attests to their superior efficiency and low emissions.
The ENERGY STAR® 4.0 label requires that discrete graphics models in idle state consume less than 22W power, integrated graphics models less than 14W. This lowers operating costs, obviously. However, it also means reduced energy costs and heat emissions, making the ThinkPad SL notebook a wise choice for the environment and your business.
