Checking the registry figures: the GE Profile G53A_2_T top-loading washer uses 759 kWh a year at DOE's test use. That figure assumes an electric water heater and an electric dryer; water use is 6,723 gallons a year. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 2.06, the 37th highest of 870 standard-size top-loaders.
Energy and water per year
759 kWh a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer
Computed by this site from the registry's IMEF and drum capacity at DOE's test use of 295 cycles a year. IMEF counts the washer, heating its water electrically, and the electric dryer's work on what the spin leaves wet — so this is the total for that kind of home. How it is calculated
The machine and its hot water alone, dryer not included: 145 kWh a year, as ENERGY STAR files it.
Not published: A home with a gas water heater, a gas dryer or line drying
DOE's rating assumes electric water heating and an electric dryer and files no split between the machine, the water heating and the drying.
Such a home uses less electricity than the total above; how much less, no registry says for this model.
6,723 gallons of water a year
Computed from the registry's IWF and drum capacity at the same 295 cycles a year.
Not published: What the water costs
water and sewer rates are set by thousands of local utilities and no free national source publishes them.
The gallons above are the figure to multiply by your own water and sewer rate.
This model is rated above the federal minimum IMEF for its class.

This site calculated the 759 kWh figure; the registry does not publish it. The calculation combines the registry's IMEF of 2.06 with the model's capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, which is 5.3. The number of cycles comes from DOE's test use, and the source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-10-25. ENERGY STAR files a separate machine-only figure of 145 kWh a year. That figure covers the washer and its electrically heated water alone and leaves out the dryer. The gap between 145 kWh and 759 kWh is the electric dryer's share under the same test use. The steps are set out on the page about how the yearly energy and water figures are calculated.

This site also calculated the 6,723 gallons figure at DOE's test use. It uses the registry's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum. For this model the IWF is 4.3, and it is multiplied by the 5.3 cubic-foot capacity for each cycle. A plumber or seller checking the figure can repeat that step using the registry values. The water cost is not stated because no free national source publishes local water and sewer rates. The text also leaves out the energy running cost, which depends on your own utility electricity tariff. The page works it out from your ZIP instead. The modeled installed-cost range appears in its own block, with its source and date.
The class comparison covers the 870 models registered as top-loading, standard size. This model's IMEF of 2.06 is rated above the federal minimum for that class. It is also above the class median IMEF of 1.57, and it ranks 37th highest of the 870. In the same class, 652 models sit at the federal minimum. A higher IMEF means more cubic feet washed per kilowatt-hour, so the rank measures energy per load size, not total use. The rank applies to this registry class and this one measure only. This page has no class comparison for IWF. Other washer models are listed on all clothes washer pages.
