A recent test gave the following results:-

The maths may need checking!

Mug of water heated at 600 watts in microwave for 1 min. 50 secs. (1.83 mins) uses 18.3 watts.

The same amount of water in a 2.75 Kw kettle heated for 35 seconds (.583 minute) uses 26.7 watts.

The microwave therefore uses about 2/3rds of  the amount of electricity used by the kettle
