Sustainability Victoria has provided data comparing the running costs of various hot water appliances to demonstrate which option offers the most cost-effective method of heating water.
For example, in Victorian households using the common electric storage hot water system, the average annual cost to heat water is $900. Conversely, heat pumps can accomplish the same task for approximately $215, representing a substantial reduction in cost compared to electric storage systems.
This reduction corresponds to approximately 76% less than the cost of electric storage systems.
It’s essential to note that precise running costs for each home will depend on factors such as electricity tariffs, the specific model of the heat pump, and hot water usage patterns.
Heat pump hot water units employ a self-contained heating process that minimizes energy wastage, akin to the efficiency of a split system air conditioner.
Data sourced from Sustainability Victoria’s Hot Water Running Costs 2020 and compares running costs of a 5.5-star gas storage system, 7-star gas instantanious system, electric storage off-peak system, high-efficiency solar gas boosted system, high-efficiency slar electric boosted system, high-efficiency hot water heat pump on off-peak tariff.
