Frequently asked questions

This ranking evaluates refrigerators that stand out for their low energy consumption, including models with ENERGY STAR certification and those with technologies like inverter compressors, which adjust their speed to optimize energy usage.
An ENERGY STAR certified refrigerator is about 9 percent more energy efficient than models that meet the federal minimum energy efficiency standard. These models meet energy-efficiency requirements set by the US Environmental Protection Agency.
The top freezer design is generally more energy efficient compared to the bottom freezer design, due to the location of the compressor. For maximum savings, top-freezer models that are Energy Star Certified are the most efficient.
Inverter refrigerators are designed to reduce energy consumption by only using as much power as needed. This results in superior energy efficiency, precise temperature control, and quieter operation, as well as greater durability of components.

How we built this ranking and what to consider when choosing

Our ranking of energy-efficient refrigerators is based on the evaluation of key features that contribute to energy savings and sustainable performance. We consider information provided by manufacturers and recognized industry certifications.
