Does thawing frozen food in the fridge really save energy?
An Energy Saving Tip is to thawing frozen food in the refridgerator since the frozen item cools the fridge. But in order to do this you need to open the fridge door twice once to put the frozen item in (heat enters the fridge whilst fridge door open) then once again to take the frozen item out.
Whereas if you didn’t thaw items in the fridge, you would not need to open your fridge door at all. So does the net effect of putting an item in the fridge to thaw outweigh the extra fridge openings it creates and the energy losses from opening the fridge door?
Thawing food can save energy in cooking. The amount of time you will spend in cooking is much lesser when the food is thawed than cooking frozen food.
You can thaw the item from fridge to the chiller the night before you plan cooking so that you don’t need to open the door once in a while.
