Electricity pricec/kWh

Total capacity: 266 L; 208 L fridge + 58 L freezer
Energy rating: 3.5; Star rating index 3.50
Annual electricity use: 277 kWh; Label figure (comparative energy consumption)
Estimated running cost: $89 / year; $7.39 / month · $886 over 10 years

5% more electricity than the median of 41 comparable 200–299 L top-mount fridge freezer registrations (265 kWh a year). It uses less than 29% of them. At 32c/kWh that is about $4 a year more than the median, $38 over 10 years.

Uses 22% less than the maximum allowed for its size and type under the minimum energy performance standard (355 kWh a year MEPS level).

Cost = label kWh × 32c/kWh in AUD; change the price above to your tariff.

kWh per year. Bar: the middle 80% of 41 comparable 200–299 L top-mount fridge freezer registrations. Dot: this model (above the median). Hover or tab to a mark for its value.

Cohort: every currently registered 200–299 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.

LG GT-2SI running cost

Per month: $7.39
Per year: $89
5 years: $443
10 years: $886

277 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: 266 L
Fresh food (fridge) volume: 208 L
Frozen storage volume: 58 L
GEMS adjusted volume: 312 L
freezer compartment: 58 L gross
fresh food compartment: 208 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.
