Blackle is an internet search engine powered by Google Programmable Search Engine. Blackle was created by Tony Heap of Heap Media Australia, which aims to save energy by displaying a black background with a grayish-white text color on search results. Blackle claims to have saved over 8.5 MWh of electrical energy as of January 2021. The concept behind Blackle is that computer monitors can be made to use less energy by displaying much darker colors. Blackle is based on a study which tested a variety of CRT and LCD monitors. However, these claims are disputed over whether there are any energy saving effects, especially for users of LCD screens, where there is a constant backlight. More information...
