If you're wondering how much a dishwasher consumes, the answer is it depends. It depends on the cycle you use, but a very efficient model in the normal program can use only 10 liters of water and just under 1 kWh of energy. A less saving model can consume about 16 liters of water and 1.20 kWh in normal program.
It is important to note that the dishwasher saves time and also water. It not only washes dishes, but also dries them.
You must pay attention to the energy rating: the efficiency in electricity and water consumption is shown on the devices by means of a system of letters and colours. This energy label has just been rescaled to better fit current consumption and avoid the use of A+, A++ and A+++ labels, which were confusing. As of March 2021, the energy labels of dishwashers that will be seen in stores range from A (the most efficient models) to G (the least efficient).
Models with a higher energy label are usually more expensive, but in the long run, you save money.
