Gas stoves are usually more expensive to buy but cheaper during use compared with electric stoves. Not only are gas stoves more energy efficient but gas is also usually cheaper than electricity, which results in operational cost savings.
On average, gas ovens cost around Â£9 a year to run, whereas electric ovens cost around Â£44 a year, so installing a gas oven gives you an annual saving of Â£35. microwave, for instance, can offer a cheaper way to cook than by oven, and sometimes cheaper than a hob. Halogen ovens (pictured below) also make bold claims about the amount of energy they save. They can roast a chicken in 30 minutes and use 75pc less electricity than a conventional electric oven.
