Ethereum's Post-Merge Energy Consumption: 7.87 GWh Annually and Its Position in PoS
A Cambridge study reveals that Ethereum, following its transition to Proof-of-Stake (PoS), operates with an annual energy consumption of 7.87 GWh. This figure positions the network as the second least energy-intensive among analyzed PoS networks when adjusted for market value, marking a drastic reduction from its Proof-of-Work (PoW) phase.
