Yes, new air compressors are significantly more energy efficient than older compressor technologies, especially if you get a variable-speed drive.

The more energy efficient the unit, the less you'll spend in electricity bills to run it.
Yes, however, the original manufacturer of the equipment warrants the components of the solution provided.
