Like most things, there are economies of scale at play here. Energy use for one sock is not linearly scaled for 100 socks.

- daveguy 9y agoThat's mainly because of the size of the washer/dryer. A scaled down w/d would be much more efficient for 1 set of clothes than putting 1 set of clothes in a normal w/d. Maybe more efficient if it is able to lay out each piece for drying. Clotheslines are very energy efficient.
