A Cambridge study found Ethereum's annual energy consumption at 7.87 gigawatt-hours, making it the second-least energy-intensive proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain when adjusted for market value.

The study highlights Ethereum's efficiency given its large transaction volume and ecosystem, providing a strong environmental case for its PoS transition. While energy use is just one sustainability factor, Ethereum's low consumption sets a benchmark for other networks considering PoS adoption.
