We plugged it to my LG L1710S LCD Screen and found these claims (unfortunately) to be untrue, atleast using this common display. In fact White Google was the "greenest". The results were: White Google - 23W Black search pages - 24W We repeated the test over and over, with the same result. Strange but true.
