How much TRX can energy rental save?
Compare the cost of the same energy usage: burning TRX versus paying rent. Unused energy is not realized savings. Account separately for bandwidth and the payment transaction.
Steps
- 1
Estimated net savings = energy actually replacing TRX burning × SUN price per energy / 1,000,000 − rental cost. The getEnergyFee value checked on 2026-10-22 was 100 SUN; network parameters can change.

If all 131,000 energy replaces burning, it represents 13.10 TRX; after 2 TRX rent, estimated savings are 11.10 TRX. Using only 65,000 energy instead gives an estimated 4.50 TRX saving.

At that unit price, 20,000 energy breaks even against 2 TRX rent before payment and bandwidth fees. If existing resources already cover the transfer, do not count their use as a benefit created by renting.
