The energy label should have the actual estimated consumption on it in kWh. The band takes into account fridge / freezer volume as well as energy consumed.
The label for the 'Blomberg' which is 324 litres is 318kWh/yr and it is an F. 318kWh at 30p is about £100. I actually can't find a 600 wide fridge/freezer on AO that is better than F, so I suspect the E ones are benefitting from a better cost per litre because of their size - they all seem to be over 400 litres volume so could well use the same or more electricity as a 324 litre F.
I can't find the detailed calculation of the bands anywhere.
