Abstract: Energy used by domestic refrigerators can be a large part of household energy use. In most countries, consumers are informed of the energy used by their appliance through energy labels or manufacturers data provided with the appliance. Work was carried out to ascertain whether the information provided to consumers provided an accurate reflection on the energy used in real life.
