If you want to have the screen turn off after say 5 minutes thats quite possible.

Right click on a blank area of the desktop and select properties. Click on screen saver. In the bottom rt hand corner click on power

Then on the next page, scroll to laptop and then click on Turn off Monitor and select a time interval you want.

Dimming the screen isn't going to save much power, Vaio makes battery packs that last up to 6 hours. That might be the route to go.
