Typically, number one, is the display except in passive LCDs (the little black/white ones like on calculators).

Any display, especially one that is backlit, will consume vast amounts of energy compared to most other components.

Beyond that, it can be many things depending on the device. Common culprits are the CPU, Hard Drives, and Wireless Cards.
