What is the energy consumption and environmental impact of an electric sit-stand desk?

Electric sit-stand desks consume very little energy — a typical motor draws 200–350 watts during active height adjustment, but each cycle lasts only 10–20 seconds. Daily energy use for 4–6 adjustments is roughly 0.002–0.004 kWh, or less than $0.01 per day at average US electricity rates. Standby draw is essentially zero (most desks draw under 0.5 watts idle). For eco-conscious buyers, look for desks with GREENGUARD certification, indicating low chemical emissions from materials.
