1.   It is therefore important to find a Martian water source that requires the least mass of equipment and the minimum power consumption.

2.   The rate of power consumption would be quite modest in such a postindustrial, steady-state society.

3.   You have to trade off stability with power consumption.

4.   Along with heavy power consumption for the hardware, he noted that server farms require additional electricity for air conditioners to counter all the heat generated by the machinery.

5.   Among the possible solutions to be highlighted is a tiny fan that its inventors say provides air flow with minimal power consumption and almost no noise.

6.   Because power consumption is proportional to the square of the voltage times the frequency, the new technology reduces power requirements more substantially.

7.   But natural gas prices are also reacting to shifts in electricity generation and to increases in power consumption.

8.   Conservation during peak hours has remained high, however, which, state officials say, shows that Californians are still conscientiously trying to cut back on power consumption.

9.   Could you give us an estimate as to what power consumption is for an average PC or Mac?

10.   Doubling the clock speed also doubles the power consumption.
