Our condensor only has an electrical feed...
I presume it has a chiller since the energy consumption is higher than for a normal vented dryer. (although on the plus side the heat is vented into the room rather than outside, so the cost equation is you spend
5kWh instead of 4kWh per load, but save 5kWh of gas in the process)
That would be the main gain IMHO. The basic physics obviously remain the same, but more intelligent control will save money spent drying already dry clothes.
How does it compare to a linear dryer? (Single bit of string between two poles).
jgh
Where does the water go?
As it's a condenser drier, I imagine it condenses it out.
Mine has a tank, but you can fit a drain. I've never bothered.

On mine, into a large "drawer" that you pull out of the machine to empty. You can also plumb it in if you want...
Seconded.
Combined solar and wind now that is energy efficient.
