The question is whether it really saves energy? instead of the tv being standby to receive signals from the TV remote control, your remote socket is now in standby mode to receive the signal from the remote socket remote.

I’d bet that the socket is drawing less wattage than the TV set does, possibly even over a LCD set and especially so if you still have a CRT set.
