Liebherr HC 1580G

Running around the clock, the Liebherr HC 1580G uses a certified 530 kWh per year — about $100 at the U.S. average rate, or $8.32 a month, the equivalent of a steady 61-watt draw. Efficiency-wise it's unremarkable in a good way: within 6% of the median certified bottom-freezer refrigerator (rank 526 of 1458). The same unit costs $65 a year in North Dakota but $247 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
