Hi ellispr,
Power consumption (watts) is an instantaneous number. To get the energy consumed over a period of time, you need to multiply by the amount of time. In the US (not sure of your country), electricity is billed in kiloWatt-hours. So for example, if a monitor consumes 45W in operational mode and 1W in powersave and you have it it on for 8 hours a day and and on power save the rest of the time, you will use up (8hoursx40W + 16hoursx1W) = 336 W-hours = 0.336 units per day.
Hope this helps.
