They have improved by 73% on average. (Energy Star 1.1 standard: Standby power 0.5 W, voltage measurement of battery charger standby power: 230 V)
(Exceeding the mode by 50% at 0.25 W)
Furthermore, these 63 models have already met Energy Star 2.0 standards, and 47 of them have also exceeded the requirements of the Energy Star 2.0 standard by more than 50%.

The IPP Project on the Efficiency of a Mobile Device Charger is a voluntary agreement committing electronics manufacturers to develop external power supplies (i.e. chargers) with minimized power consumption and, in particular, minimum no-load power consumption. This means that when the charger is not charging a device, but is still plugged in, it consumes a minimal amount of energy.
Energy Efficiency Rating for Mobile Device Charger (By Voluntary Agreement EU and Industry IPP Project)
| Rating | No-load Power consumption |
|---|---|
| ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ | ≤ 0.03W |
| ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ | > 0.03W to 0.15W |
| ♦ ♦ ♦ | > 0.15W to 0.25W |
| ♦ ♦ | > 0.25W to 0.35W |
| ♦ | > 0.35W to 0.5W |
| - | > 0.5W |
To reduce unnecessary power consumption, please unplug the charger from the wall after the phone has been charged.
