Most energy-efficient method to cook brown rice?

Because I've been eating rice more often I realized via my energy bill that cooking in a pot on an electric plate for 30 minutes consumes massive amounts of electricity. Therefore I'm currently browsing for rice cookers, but the info on energy efficiency leaves much to be desired.
What would be the most efficient method to cook brown rice? Which appliance would be recommendable and ideally be in line with the Buy It For Life philosophy?

I guess you want unattended cooking. But if that’s not the case, and you’re doing other stuff in the kitchen, an induction cooktop is the most versatile option. Some even let you set a temperature so you’re not wasting energy.

Not at all actually. I'm way too conscious of fire safety. Unfortunately won't immediately change to an induction cooktop. I realize it's the more efficient option, but the investment would only make sense if I knew for sure I'll be living where I am now for a long time. Thanks for the input.
I have a countertop version with a single “burner”. It’s amazing what you can do with that. Sometimes I take it outside to cook out when the weather is nice.
