The charging cables included with MacBooks do not support Thunderbolt. Just USB 2.0 data.

I do have an Apple Thunderbolt cable which supports charging (of course), but it was a separate purchase. The Thunderbolt cable looks similar but is a bit thicker, and has the Thunderbolt logo printed on the connectors at each end.
