23 85 in and up TVs, Ranked by Running Cost
Televisions, 85 in and up or more, sold in the US. Screen size is the certified measured diagonal, rounded to the nearest size TVs are sold by. Ranked cheapest to run first, estimated at 18.31¢/kWh (July 2026).
This depends heavily on hours of use. ENERGY STAR's annual figure is based on a fixed test assumption, not your actual viewing hours — a TV on 2 hours a day will cost much less than shown, one on 8 hours a day much more. Use it to compare models at the same size, not as your real bill.
23 ENERGY STAR certified models, from about $43 to $116 a year to run at the US average electricity rate. See how we calculate running costs.
