I could see some use if it was "green" ECC DDR3 as even if each stick only used say 0.25w less how many sticks of ram do you think are in a data center? although i'm not thinking about its "green" effects, i was thinking more along the lines of (slightly) reduced power usage thus reduced running cost.
If "green" ram could cut a couple hundred KW/h of power usage per day on a big server farm it would be a reasonable ammount of reduced power cost over the lifetime of the sticks, also i think lower power SODIMM's would be useful for squeezing an extra few min out of a battery but when it comes to a desktop pc then low power ram will have no noticable effect on power usage or heat output.
