This sounds like a sensible plan for helping the environment and saving users money. I wonder sometimes how long it will be till all electrical appliances use just 1 or 2 watts.

Anything that uses electricity to generate heat (on purpose) is not going to manage that, Kettles, electric ovens, Washing machines, toasters, tumble driers, microwaves etc can get more efficient, but no where near 1 or 2 watts.
