Very - probably well over 90%. An electric kettle is very efficient, especially if the body is made from plastic rather than metal; almost all of the electrical energy used goes into heating the contents rather than the container. A metal bodied kettle used on a gas stove would be significantly less efficient.

What is kettle's efficiency?
Kettle efficiency refers to how effectively a kettle can convert electrical energy into heat energy to boil water. A kettle's efficiency can be influenced by factors such as the material of the kettle, its insulation, and the design of the heating element. Kettles with higher efficiency tend to boil water faster and use less electricity.
How does an electric kettle work to heat water efficiently and quickly?
An electric kettle works by using a heating element to quickly heat water. When the kettle is turned on, electricity flows through the heating element, which generates heat. The heat is transferred to the water, causing it to heat up rapidly. The design of the kettle allows for efficient heat transfer, resulting in fast boiling times.
Where can you purchase a Ghillie Kettle?
A Ghillie Kettle, Kelly Kettle, or Eydon Storm Kettle are all the same basic product. They are available from their websites: http://www.ghillie-kettle.co.uk/index.html http://www.kellykettle.com/ http://www.eydonkettle.com/ A slightly different version from New Zealand called a Thermette is available in copper from: http://www.thermette.com/ They are all very fuel efficient and will work well in windy/wet weather.
Why is the heating element in an electric kettle positioned very close to the bottom of the kettle?
The heating element is positioned close to the bottom of the electric kettle to ensure efficient transfer of heat to the water. Placing it near the bottom helps heat the water evenly and quickly, leading to faster boiling times. Additionally, it helps prevent damage to the kettle by keeping the element submerged in water at all times.
Is a boiling kettle useful or wasted energy?
A boiling kettle is useful for preparing hot water for drinks or cooking. However, leaving a kettle boiling for an extended period would waste energy unnecessarily. It is best to boil only as much water as needed to be energy-efficient.
Why is kettle not 100 percent efficient?
There are many factors that affect the loss of energy:1 the resistance of the wire2 the kettle will keep most heat in but not all heat within the kettle so more energy is lost3 the water will evaporate out the top and that is also a cause. (they can't close it off otherwise the pressure would build and it would explode).
How does a kettle know when to let go of steam?
First of all, there are many different types of kettles sold and some kettles function differently from others. Traditionally a kettle will know when to release steam due to the kinetic energy/movement of steam, within the kettle. It will then release the steam so that it is not trapped inside. However, there is also a different type of way of how a kettle will know when to release steam. Nowadays, this method is becoming more popular with newer kettles. A kettle will release steam once the kettle reaches a certain temperature and this is due to the heat energy of the kettle. Heat causes steam and so these newer kettles will still be able to release amounts of steam. Some people say that they prefer the method of the heat energy of the kettle instead of the movement of the steam and that it is much more efficient. Ultimately, a kettle will know when to release steam, either by the kinetic energy of the steam inside the kettle, or by the heat energy of the kettle.
