What's the use of energy?

Energy can be mainly used for consumption in the following scenarios (the following consumption data is a summary of the data on the chain, which is an approximate data. The actual and accurate consumption data needs to be queried by the block browser after operation.

TRC20 consumption

TRC20 tokens consume bandwidth and energy. For example, USDT is 20 tokens, and a transfer requires 28031 energy and 345 bandwidth, which needs to be deducted about 7.8TRX for energy and 0.345TRX for bandwidth.

smart contract consumption

Calling smart contracts consumes bandwidth and energy. For example, SUNSWAP trading transactions are all smart contract interactions, which consume energy and bandwidth in the account.

TRC20 deployment

Standard contract deployment consumes 580,000 energy, about 150 TRX, while non-standard token contract deployment consumes tens to millions of energy.

TRC721 Deployment

To deploy TRON NFT (TRC721 protocol), it will consume 10610 bandwidth and 1.67 million energy, and deduct 10.61TRX and 471TRX fees.
