A home server for service convergence and energy saving and a method for controlling the same are provided to offer a broadband home network distribution function of more than 100 Mbps by installing a network distribution function part and to minimize the power consumption by controlling associated modules according to operation or service states. A home server for service convergence and energy saving comprises a broadcast processing part(300), a service processor part(400), a network distribution function part(500), a power supply part(100), and a power control part(200). The broadcast processing part(300) selects, receives, and decodes broadcast signals, and at the same time, executes distribution of the broadcast signals. The service processor part(400) controls the overall operations of the home server, and informs the power control part(200) of the present service mode and power-saving mode. The network distribution function part(500) supports a private network in a home, executes a network distribution function in a home network, and supplies a broadcast selection signal for broadcast distribution to the power control part(200). The power supply part(100) supplies power to each module in the home server. The power control part(200) controls on/off of the power supplied to each module from the power supply part(100) according to the service mode and operation state of the home server.
