18% less electricity than the median of 49 comparable 300–399 L top-mount fridge freezer registrations (312 kWh a year). It uses less than 94% of them. At 32c/kWh that is about $18 a year less than the median, $179 over 10 years.
Uses 34% less than the maximum allowed for its size and type under the minimum energy performance standard (387 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 300–399 L top-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.

256 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
- 326 L
- Fresh food (fridge) volume
- 253 L
- Frozen storage volume
- 73 L
- GEMS adjusted volume
- 383 L
- fresh food compartment
- 253 L gross
- freezer compartment
- 73 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.
