E-ink actually doesn't as it only uses power when pixels change between black and white and not when it's displaying a static image. E-ink uses the same amount of power rendering white text on black as black text on white. However, white text is more common since e-ink is specifically meant to imitate printed pages, and assuming it's not backlit, also doesn't have nearly as bad eye strain issues when in light mode as a glowing screen does.
