Is induction stove better than LPG?

Let’s take an example that we want to boil 10 ltrs of water (at 25 degrees). So the energy required for the same is: 10000 x 4.2 x 75 = 3150000 Joules….Comparing costs of sources.

	Energy (in Joules) per unit
LPG Stove	654620000
PNG Stove	41868000
Induction Cooktop	3600000
Electric Coil Cooktop	3600000

Is induction more efficient than gas?

Research clearly shows that induction cooktops are more energy efficient: gas cooktops are about 40 percent efficient; electric-coil and standard smooth-top electric cooktops are about 74 percent efficient; and induction cooktops are 84 percent efficient.

Which is cheaper induction or LPG?

“It costs Rs 10.15 for heating 10 kg water from ambient temperature to boiling point in Delhi using a domestic LPG cylinder. Comparably, the cost through an electric stove will come up to Rs 9.46 and with an induction stove, it will be Rs 8.33 for heating the same quantity.

Does induction consume more electricity?

An induction cooktop does not use more electricity and is far more energy-efficient than gas or electric cooktops. With induction cooking, 85-90\% of the heat energy generated is used for cooking.

What boils water faster gas or induction?

It took a little over 4 minutes to boil water on an induction cooktop. That was three minutes faster than on an electric coil (about 7 minutes), and four full minutes faster than on the gas range (about 8 minutes). Induction was the clear winner in our test kitchen.

Is induction safer than gas?

Induction stoves offer greater safety than gas or electric stoves. In induction cooking, there is no heating element or open flame, and the range itself does not get hot, so the risk of accidental burns is far lower.
