For training yes, but during operation by this studies measure Deepseek actually has a higher power draw, according to the article. Even models with more efficient programming use insane amounts of electricity

This was higher than all other tested models, except for OpenAI’s o3 (25.35 Wh) and Deepseek’s R1 (20.90 Wh).

OK I guess I didn’t read far enough but your quote says that Deepseek uses less than Open AI?

  Less than Open AI’s o3, but that’s because o3 was estimated to use even more power than GPT 5’s 18 Wh per query.
