To turn off Clean Energy Charging on an iPhone, you do it from the Battery settings; once disabled, your phone will charge normally without waiting for “cleaner” energy availability.

What Clean Energy Charging Is

  • Clean Energy Charging is an iOS feature meant to reduce your iPhone’s carbon footprint by timing charging to when cleaner electricity is available on the grid.
  • It is enabled by default on supported iPhones and can sometimes make charging seem slower or “delayed” because it may pause charging at certain times.

Steps to Turn It Off

On recent iOS versions (iOS 16 and later, including newer iPhones):

  1. Open Settings on your iPhone.
  1. Scroll down and tap Battery.
  1. Tap Battery Health & Charging.
  1. Find Clean Energy Charging and toggle it off.
  1. When prompted, choose either:
    • Turn Off Until Tomorrow , or
    • Turn Off (to disable it completely).

Once this is done, the phone will charge as it did before, without trying to optimize for cleaner energy times.

Extra Things To Know

  • The option may only appear in certain regions (for example, it has been noted as primarily available in the U.S.).
  • If you do not see Clean Energy Charging in Battery settings, your device or region may not support it yet, or your iOS version may be too old.
