19% more electricity than the median of 53 comparable 80 kW and above reverse cycle ducted packaged registrations (41,538 kWh a year) in the cold zone. Uses less than 40% of them.

Across all 3,611 air conditioner registrations sold in Australia, it uses less than 1% (this compares very different sizes, so the cohort figure above is the useful one).
