Sabaidee, Welcome!
This is a community for promoting sustainability in tech and computing. This includes: understanding the impact that our tech/computing choices have on the environment; purchasing or re-using devices that are sustainable and repairable; how to properly recycle or dispose of old devices when it is beyond use; and promoting software and services that allow us to reduce our environmental impact in the long term, both at work and in our personal lives.
This isn't a competition, it's a reminder to stay grounded when making your decisions. Remember: The most sustainable device is the one that you are already using.

Thanks to Emporia's excellent tools, I have outlets and usb chargers in my house that only work when I'm generating excess solar. I don't need my power banks every day so they get plugged into those outlets.
Oh, and my car. My car only charges as fast as my solar generation permits. I love Emporia.
I'd love to have smartedr charging of the car. Currently we just use a plug in portable charger, which actively advises against putting anything between it and the socket (e.g. no smart plugs).
One day we will get a nicer car and then install an appropriate charger that can connect to home assistant ๐
