This paper presents a preliminary study on the energy consumption of two popular web browsers. In order to properly measure the energy consumption of both environments, we simulate the usage of various applications, which the goal to mimic typical user interactions and usage.

Our preliminary results show interesting findings based on observation, such as what type of interactions generate high peaks of energy consumption, and which browser is overall the most efficient. We aim that this preliminary study may show users how very different the efficiency of browsers are, and may serve as a stepping stone to further broaden this field of study.
