What sits beside it in the ranking

Within the State lineup
State makes 34 ENERGY STAR certified electric water heaters; this one ranks 14 of 34 for running cost, between the brand's cheapest, the HPSX-50-DHPT 2 at $156/yr, and its priciest, the HPVX-80-DHPT 2 at $311/yr.
What this adds up to over time
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components puts a typical electric water heater's service life at 11 years; run the State HPSX-66-DHPT 2 that long and it costs about $2,550 in electricity, on top of whatever it cost to buy.
Shopping for a new one
The State HPSX-66-DHPT 2 runs above its category average. If the electric water heater you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $232/year every year.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
Protecting what you have
A electric water heater like the State HPSX-66-DHPT 2 is a real household expense whether or not it needs replacing yet; a protection plan is one way to budget for a repair rather than a full replacement.
