Yes, at least on battery powered PCs. Other kinds of machines may be more efficient on Linux but I guess these are mostly cases when there are no big and well developed proprietary solutions for them.
I imagine it varies wildly by distro, hardware, use-case, etc.
I don't have any information that proves it. I think in this list only hardware matters.
Surely use-case is important? Someone running a server that's on 24/7 vs. someone running it on a laptop or desktop that they shut down every day.
I was talking about comparing the efficiency between operating systems. That requires the use case to be the same. Comparing different use cases is unfair.
