The IBM Energy or PS/2E (IBM 9533) is an IBM Personal System/2 computer. It was the first Energy Star compliant personal computer. It was highly recyclable at the time compared to other computers.

It had a 50 MHz IBM 486SLC processor, an ISA bus, four PC card slots, and an IDE hard drive interface. Additional options included several PCMCIA cards, a color LCD screen, and a color LCD touch-screen with a special version of OS/2.

The environmentally-friendly PC borrowed many components from the ThinkPad line and was composed of recycled plastics, designed to be easily recycled at the end of its life, and used very little power.

No extension slot were present on the motherboard, as additional cards were supposed to use the PCMCIA slots instead, without opening the computer.
