Running cost is a simple calculation:
Daily cost = kWh/24h × your €/kWh rate
Annual cost = daily cost × 365
Example (for illustration): if a cooler averages 2.0 kWh/24h and your blended rate is €0.30 per kWh, then:
Daily cost = 2.0 × 0.30 = €0.60 per day
Annual cost = 0.60 × 365 = €219 per year
To get a meaningful comparison between models, always use the same tariff and compare like-for-like figures (kWh/24h or annual kWh).
