Provided are an energy-saving apparatus using computer user information and an energy-saving method using same. In detail, in order to minimize power consumption of a computer by automatically switching a power mode of the computer to an energy-saving mode according to whether the computer recognizes the computer user information, the energy-saving apparatus includes: a signal generation unit which stores and transmits the computer user information; an information transceiving unit which receives the computer user information from the signal generation unit; a storage space for storing user authentication information; a comparison unit which compares the computer user information received from the signal generation unit with the user authentication information stored in the storage space to determine whether or not the computer user information and the user authentication information match each other; and a mode switching unit which switches the power mode of the computer into the energy-saving mode according to a result of the determination of the comparison unit. |
