Net Zero in this case is not a Broadband Provider. From a 2009 eMagin Press Release. The single most important advantage that AMOLED has over other any display alternative in any application.

"Due to the innate ability of OLED materials to produce light, each pixel of a display is its own light source, eliminating the need for backlighting the entire display as is required in typical LCD flat panels, even tiny ones used in personal viewing products like night vision goggles and media viewers.
“We can save military and commercial customers literally millions of batteries per year,” said Bruce Ridley, eMagin’s VP of Business Development. “Over the lifetime of these mobile devices, the potential to positively impact the environment by reducing manufacturing, storage, transportation and disposal of batteries is enormous.”
