Yes.
The amount of energy saved is equal to that your standard dryer uses. For example my dryer uses 4 Cf. of gas per load so I save 8-12 cf of gas by hanging my laundry to dry. as for wattage it would be in the area of 360wph or so.

The top-rated clothes washer and dishwasher models cost less than $30 a year to operate, including both the energy used to heat the water and the electricity used directly by the appliance

Yes it is. It's hard to tell how much it saves, though, because usage seems to fluctuate a LOT at our house. The only problem we have is that the clothes seem a little stiff if we hang them while they're spraying chemtrails in the sky overhead.

Yes, it is a solar-powered clothes drier. I haven't calculated how much it saves me, but it's probably quite a bit.

Saves a lot of electricity thus saving a lot of emission (if thermal power) or nuclear fuel which can be used elsewhere for better purposes.
If you are in dry hot climate they also provide some cooling effect.
