There is also pmset which is very useful (since macOS doesn't give a UI counterpart) https://support.apple.com/en-am/guide/mac-help/mchl40376151/...

I have this .zshrc function to track the battery and charging, which uses pmset:

    function batt-info() {
        echo
        system_profiler SPPowerDataType | grep Wattage | cut -c 7-
        echo
        pmset -g batt
    }
