Is it worth replacing?
The GE GDP67V is already efficient for its category at $45/year. If you're shopping and comparing options, this is roughly what a well-chosen new dishwasher costs to run.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
Protecting what you have
$45/year to run is the predictable cost of the GE GDP67V; a protection plan covers the unpredictable one, a repair bill.
Sourcing
Two sourced numbers, nothing modeled: ENERGY STAR's certified kWh/yr for this exact model, and EIA's published state electricity rate. The full Dishwasher category page shows all 737 dishwashers ranked by cost; the state-rate guide covers the half of this number that isn't the appliance.
