|---|---|---|---|
| Official cooking zonesThe official number of cooking zones on the ENERGY STAR certified record. A missing value is shown as Not listed and scores at the category minimum. | 4 zones | 4 zones | 25% |
| Official maximum cooking-zone wattageThe highest official cooking-zone wattage published on the ENERGY STAR record. This is a certified nameplate figure, not a measured boil-time test. A missing value scores at the category minimum. | 3600 W | 3000 W | 30% |
| Computed total cooking-zone wattageThe sum of the official cooking-zone wattages on the ENERGY STAR record, labelled computed. Zones with a listed size but no listed wattage are omitted from the sum. A missing value scores at the category minimum. | 9100 W | 8400 W | 25% |
| Official cooktop low-power-mode energyOfficial ENERGY STAR cooktop low-power-mode energy in kilowatt-hours per year. Lower is better. Official annual energy consumption on this dataset clusters tightly, so we score this low-power field instead and still print the official annual figure on each card. A missing value scores at the category minimum (the highest low-power energy in the set). | 5.01 kWh/year | 6.11 kWh/year | 20% |

| Source note | Official annual energy consumption is the ENERGY STAR certified figure. On this dataset those official annual figures cluster tightly (roughly 175–195 kWh/year), so we show them as a detail and do not use them as a primary score. | Official annual energy consumption is the ENERGY STAR certified figure.
