Based on the 2-oven, 60cm wide AGA cooker with two cast-iron ovens and one hotplate. The ovens can be switched on and off independently.

*as tested by AGA. Each test excludes any cooking and is with all doors and lids closed.

**Average cost for electricity 18.9p/kWh for 2021 (Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy, January 2022). Future predictions on the price of electricity per kWh is difficult to predict. For our estimates we have used the Department for Business and energy data based on a 2021 average. At present the best prediction going forward is around 21p/kWh.

The new AGA R3 Series models are fully electric heat-storage appliances, requiring only a low power supply via either one or two 13 amp connections. The AGA R3 Series is designed to remain on all day, like a traditional AGA cooker, however offering additional control and flexibility as it enables ovens and hotplates to be controlled individually. This model also features a useful 'e' setting for reduced energy consumption and lower running costs.

To conserve energy, we would recommend adopting AGA recommended cooking methods which utilise the ovens as much as possible. When not in use, always close the insulated hotplate lids and doors.
