When we talk about energy usage then the main thing we can discuss is whether or not it’s using auto defrost (frost free) or manual defrost chest freezer.  An Auto defrost chest freezer means that the freezer will stop the frosted ice to keep on pilling inside the freezer, this process will require the freezer to use more energy in the process while a manual defrost chest freezer need us to defrost it regularly but the chest freezer will save more energy than auto defrost, so if you want to find an energy efficient freezer then go for the manual defrost models.
