The highest power consumption occurs when the AC compressor is on. In inverter air conditioners, the compressor runs all the time and never stops.

The compressor does not turn on and off repeatedly, so it does not need additional power. This provides the proper power when the compressor needs it.

The Difference Between Inverter Air Conditioners and Non-Inverter Air Conditioners

Normal inverter compressors always run at the same speed, while inverter compressors change speed as demand fluctuates. It regulates the flow of refrigerant throughout the refrigeration cycle.

The AC inverter can adjust the compressor motor speed. Once the room has cooled, Inverter air conditioners reduce motor speed to save energy and refrigerant used to cool the air.
