It causes the alternator to work harder to keep the battery charged. The engine spins the alternator and that requires the engine to work harder using more fuel. But, although that is very true, the amount of extra fuel you will use is negligible. Enjoy the electronics as the extra fuel used is so small as to be a non-issue.

How much will old oil increase fuel consumption?
It will not increase fuel consumption.
Does using an automobile air conditioner while driving increase fuel consumption?
yes
Does driving with all lights on increase fuel consumption?
No it does not affect fuel consumption.
Does overdrive increase fuel consumption?
No, fuel consumption is decreased, the vehicle rev's lower.
Does the silencer increase fuel consumption?
Not enough that you would ever notice.
Can GPS trackers reduce fuel consumption?
A GPS tracker has very little o do with fuel consumption. Using a GPS will, however, allow you to plan the shortest route to your destination thereby reducing the fuel consumption.
If you remove the catalytic converter on a Suzuki Sx4 would it reduce fuel consumption?
no it should increase fuel consumption as the oxygen sensor should compensating by adjusting the engine to run rich.
Does load affects fuel consumption per hour of a diesel generator?
If the generator is to maintain the same rpm and power output, then a heavier load will increase the diesel consumption. The revolutions per minute the generator runs will increase as the load increases, thereby resulting in an increase in diesel consumption to maintain the high rpm. A Generator has a governor which attempts to maintain frequency at 60 Hz for North America. For the generator to increase the power output at the same frequency, the governor will increase the fuel and air to the engine. The fuel consumption will not be linear because of the curves associated with the particular engine. The fuel to KWH is know as the heat rate curve for the generator.
What are the disadvantages of using hard water in industry?
formation of scales prevent effective transfer of heat increase fuel consumption causes external overheating causes clogging and narrowing of passages
Does driving with the lights on increase fuel consumption?
(no it uses the energy from the car battery not the energy made by the engine)Yes it does increase consumption because the battery has to be recharged by the power of the engine driving the alternator or the dynamo
Is an engine of bigger capacity same as increase in fuel consumption?
Normally the larger the engine the more fuel it will use under the same conditions.
Where is the fuel switch on Peugeot 107 verve?
Does not have one. Check electrics
