In the no-load mode, Timeline consumes only 0.1W of electricity, boosting electricity efficiency by 66%. Aspire Timeline's Mission-Critical Performances Take users in Taiwan for example. For every Timeline (the 4810T model) used, up to 10.81 kilowatts of electricity is saved annually, compared with that of older models. In other words, it reduces carbon dioxide emission by nearly 7 kg per year, which equals to the CO2 absorption of 0.56 tree. The aforesaid power-saving statistics is calculated using Energy Star's 5.0 Typical Energy Consumption (TEC) formula; the amount of CO 2 emission is calculated using Taiwan's 2009 energy release coefficient of 0.623 kgCO 2 e/ kWh. One tree can absorb an average 12 kilograms of carbon dioxide a year, according to the United Nation Environment Programme, "Plant for the Planet – the Billion Tree Campaign." The Timeline series celebrates the beginning of a new era in mobile computing. It's capable of handling complicated tasks with an enduring battery-life, and affordable priced to override the price tags of lightweight products. Innovative low-carbon solutions and the birth of Aspire Timeline notebooks are the perfect answer to the current market demand, and they are enabled by suggestions during Acer's engagement with stakeholders. Aspire Timeline series symbolizes a triumph and extraordinary value, driven by a close partnership with Acer, consumers, and stakeholders. The road toward sustainability and innovation is a fulfilling work in progress. We are eyeing to launch a fresh line of high-performance operation platforms, study for and develop a diverse span of green products, and strengthen communication with our consumers. We also have faith that this in turn bolsters stakeholders' confidence in Acer's endeavors to develop new products, which punctuates Acer's market value and contribution. 26
