Good question.
Anyone know how much energy is used to boil a [full] kettle and would a 1/4 of the energy be used to boil a 1/4 full kettle?

A little more than 1/4th the cost of boiling a full kettle, to boil 1/4th cost, irrespective of the size of the kettle, fuel used, provided the material boiled , place where it is done are same/similar.

re boiling does use extra power no count if it extremely is 0.5 a kettle each and every time. notwithstanding it is going to take longer for the kettle to boil, the preliminary capability surge is what makes use of up the main quantity of power. I actual have a tendency to boil an entire kettle and positioned it in a flask saves me reboiling in any respect later in the day.
