High Average Energy Impact (Google Chrome

Hello,

I am worried about my macbook's battery life-- I recently brought my Macbook Pro 13.3 Inch with Retina Display on October 29th, 2015.

At this point, I am currently at 94% battery capacity out of nowhere and I checked my activity monitor to see what is using up so much energy and I saw that my browsers (Google Chrome and Safari) have incredibly high average energy impacts.

I don't know how to fix this but I would be truly grateful if one of you guys are able to help me out with it.

Thank you so much, I appreciate it.

I don't see anything surprising in that information nor anything to be worried about.

If you have Chrome or Safari open and browsing the web it is going to use energy to display your screen, update the web pages, etc. If you want them to use less energy, quit them and use them less frequently.

Also, in some of the applications, I'm getting large spikes of energy impact that would last for a few seconds then immediately go back to 0.1 - 3.0 in the energy impact. For instance, just five minutes ago Spotify had an energy impact of 33,857.32 and I had no idea why.

I barely use the computer as it is and I only use it to browse the web (college, netflix at times, but mostly college and document-writing), but I was told by the Apple Customer Service that it should be around 80% battery capacity at 1000 cycles, but I've only been at 39 cycles and I'm already down 6%-- leaving me to 94% battery capacity already.

I just don't know what I'm doing wrong as I do not have plugins or extensions that could be causing so much energy impact on the browsers/spotify and it's making me confused-- that's all.

What application are you using to gather that information?

The battery capacity information is under the "About this Mac" at the upper left hand corner.

For the energy impacts, it's in the Activity Monitor application that came with Apple.

Interesting... I thought the bottom screen was similar to Activity monitor but mine does not show the "Avg Energy Impact" column.

Hey i have the same problem. I tried reinstalling my os, reformatting my ssd and such.

It didn't help one bit, my google chrome is still giving me high avg energy impact.

i asked 2 of my friends who are also using macbook pro and theirs didn't even reach 100 in avg energy impact :/

not sure why it's only mine

I experience the same. Chrome has a average energy usage of about 300, and sometimes there are these insanely high spikes that don't last a second of about 30.000. It can't be normal. I reinstalled chrome, but it didn't change anything.

Hi

It could be because some of your tabs have website open that has screwed up js and is taking a lot of bw.

check out this fantastic blog https://medium.freecodecamp.org/how-i-doubled-the-battery-life-on-my-mac-by-lite rally-closing-one-tab-in-a-browser-d96f2…

I solved my issue with this.
