Low power fans save energy in a couple of different ways.
First, they use less electricity to operate. Secondly, every cubic foot of air exhausted from the house is one more cubic foot that needs to be heated or cooled.
Isn't that backwards ? If you remove air that then needs to be reheated or cooled, isn't that wasting energy ?
Well, lucky for you "fart" fans are required by code (when there is no window). I don't really ever recall seeing an apartment bath with an operable window.
It's usually older homes (pre-WWII) that have bathrooms with windows; even in relatively modest homes. Which is good; I really like the idea of having fresh air coming in while, um..., sitting on the porcelain throne. Plus, during the day, you get natural light and save electricity. Most bathrooms in newer homes are windowless, however.

My home was built in 2014 and has a full size window that opens. The home we moved from (built 2006)also had a window in the bathroom, but it did not open.
Panasonic again, so many options, one will work for you... The answer is right there
