Aeg OSC8M18ADC Fridge
Aeg OSC8M18ADC is a 245 L bottom-mount fridge freezer registered under Australia’s Energy Rating (GEMS) scheme (registration ARF3576).
- Total capacity
- 245 L
- 182 L fridge + 62 L freezer
- Energy rating
- 5
- Star rating index 5.26
- Annual electricity use
- 190 kWh
- Label figure (comparative energy consumption)
- Estimated running cost
- $61 / year
- $5.07 / month · $608 over 10 years
24% less electricity than the median of 42 comparable 200–299 L bottom-mount fridge freezer registrations (250 kWh a year). It uses less than 71% of them. At 32c/kWh that is about $19 a year less than the median, $192 over 10 years.
Uses 61% less than the maximum allowed for its size and type under the minimum energy performance standard (489 kWh a year MEPS level).
Cost = label kWh × 32c/kWh in AUD; change the price above to your tariff.
How efficient is it for its size?
Cohort: every currently registered 200–299 L bottom-mount fridge freezer sold in Australia, counted once per registration. Star ratings already account for size through the GEMS adjusted-volume formula; this comparison is in raw kWh against models a buyer would actually consider instead.

- $61
- 5 years
- $304
- 10 years
- $608
190 kWh × 32c/kWh. No inflation or tariff change assumed. Fridges run continuously, so the label figure is a whole-year estimate under standard test conditions.
Capacity and compartments
- Total gross volume
- 245 L
- Fresh food (fridge) volume
- 182 L
- Frozen storage volume
- 62 L
- GEMS adjusted volume
- 294 L
- fresh food compartment
- 182 L gross
- freezer compartment
- 62 L gross
Gross volumes exclude shelving. Fresh food = fresh food, chill and cellar compartments; frozen = freezer, two-star and ice-making (zero-star) compartments. Adjusted volume weights frozen space more heavily and is what the government uses to set the star rating for the size.
