Energy efficiency The freezers in your fridge consume a lot of energy, so you should pick models that have high ratings for energy efficiency. A fridge with a higher energy rating will reduce your energy bills and reduce carbon emissions. These fridges might cost more initially but they'll be able to pay for themselves in the long run through the savings in energy. The efficiency of the fridge-freezer is determined by its energy consumption and the amount of heat it generates. To determine the efficiency of a fridge-freezer you should look for an energy label with an overall rating of A to G. Then, look at the icons on the label to determine what the compartments for frozen and chilled are rated. Refrigerators with an A+ rating are the most energy efficient. They use less than 150 kWh per year, which is considerably lower than the UK average of 85 kWh. A+++ models also use less gas than other freezers and fridges, so they're safer for the environment. You can also use the EU's EPREL database to determine how efficient an appliance is. To do this, hover your smartphone over the QR code on the label that indicates energy consumption. You will be taken to the product page on the database which gives you complete information on the fridge's consumption of energy and emissions. Also, consider whether the model is frost free and how easy it will be to clean. Refrigerators with a frost-free feature don't require defrosting, saving you the hassle and mess of removing and cleaning the ice. You should also choose an appliance that has an option to deep freeze. This will help keep frozen food fresher for longer.
