Yes, the more heat you want the A/C to remove the more energy it will use. While I'm sure there is a mathematical explanation, I'm no mathematician. Think of it like this. A car driven at a very slow speed will use very little energy to propel itself forward. To drive the car at high velocity requires much more energy. This concept also applies to your air conditioner.

Tips For Getting Cheaper Electric Bills?
If your electricity bill is continuously too high, there are a number of things you can do to reduce the amount you will be having to pay each month. Around the house, one of the most simple things you can do during hot summer months is to close your window blinds when you are not home during the day. This will prevent a lot of heat from coming into your home and will reduce the overall temperature for when you return. You will not feel the need to blast the air conditioner as high and thus will consume less electricity. Another similar tip is to simply unplug appliances when you are not using them as they will generate heat even when not on. You can also use fans to assist the cool down of the air conditioner so that you are more comfortable in your home.
