What happens if the power goes out while charging?
A power outage is annoying, but usually not dangerous for your car or charger. Leafy Energy records the interruption and helps you resume charging safely afterwards.
During the outage
- The charging session stops automatically.
- The charger and car switch to a safe state.
- Leafy Energy can temporarily no longer read live data.
After power is restored
- Many cars and chargers automatically resume charging once power is back.
- Leafy Energy recalculates the schedule based on remaining time and targets.
- The timeline clearly marks a “Grid outage” segment.
In regions with an unstable grid, it may be wise to choose a slightly higher minimum SOC and a wider time window so that a short outage does not immediately cause range anxiety.
