Appliance energy use (kWh per use) is sourced from Energy Saving Trust / Confused.com / Heatable running-cost guides, 2026 — the same figures used worldwide since it’s a property of the appliance, not the country. Priced at €0.46/kWh — Derived from CRU’s typical consumption value priced at SEAI’s average unit rate (~€1,950 / 4,200 kWh). Chart and figures start at typical default usage, then update live as you edit — your actual costs depend on your own habits and appliance model.
