I go to system Preferences / dock & menu bar / other modules and there is no battery icon just Accessibility short cuts and fast user switching. All doc say a battery option should be there so you can add battery to menu bar.
Mac mini, macOS 10.12
You might want to look a little harder:
Note: If you're actually using a Mac mini, as your tag suggests, you don't have a battery operated Mac.

It must be because this is a mac Mini than there is no battery..... But just looking for verification.
That's because iMac don't have a battery, they have to be plugged in to work
I have this exact same issue - and my dock and menu bar looks the same as the screenshot above. I am running a 2019 27" iMac - not a mac Mini - and there is definitely NO battery icon after updating to Big Sur. I have a 2015 MacBook Pro which I also upgraded to Big Sur and the battery is in the dock. So it's on one Mac but not the other... Any ideas?
No option for Battery in the screen shot above? everything else is working fine.
