AOC 24E4CV
At the standardized usage ENERGY STAR assumes, the AOC 24E4CV consumes 50 kWh a year — about $9.34 at the U.S. average electricity rate ($0.78 a month). Efficiency-wise it's unremarkable in a good way: within 10% of the median certified computer monitor (rank 886 of 1482). The same unit costs $6.13 a year in North Dakota but $23 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
