If you noticed your iPhone is charging a little slower it may be due to a new setting Apple added in iOS 16.1 — Clean Energy Charging. With it turned on, iOS will only recharge the iPhone's battery when the electrical grid uses cleaner energy sources like solar or wind.crazyk4952 t1_ja6gw8j wrote

Nope. There is no way an iPhone battery holds 393 watt hours of electricity.
It’s more like 12.68 watt hours. See: https://9to5mac.com/2022/09/11/iphone-14-battery-sizes/
I’ll let you redo the math. Needless to say the impact is much, much less.

You're right, sorry. Redoing the math the impact drops to ~$26,000 saved per day. I wouldn't call it nothing, but you're right about it being much, much less.
