Right next to it on the list
A rank or two either side of the MOISWELL Aegis HP110: MOISWELL Aegis H110 ($70/yr, 374 kWh/yr), then Fehom JD025L-120 ($71/yr, 375 kWh/yr).
Within the MOISWELL lineup

Lifespan
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components does not publish a figure for dehumidifiers, so no lifetime cost is shown here rather than a guessed one. The annual and monthly figures above stand on their own.
Is it worth replacing?
Efficient as certified dehumidifiers go, $70/year is a reasonable baseline if you're comparing what else is on the market.

If you're keeping it
At $70/year just to run, a dehumidifier is worth protecting against an unplanned repair bill on top of that.
Where this number comes from
Two sourced numbers, nothing modeled: ENERGY STAR's certified kWh/yr for this exact model, and EIA's published state electricity rate. The full Dehumidifier category page shows all 546 dehumidifiers ranked by cost; the state-rate guide covers the half of this number that isn't the appliance.
