Abstract
A system for providing electrical energy to an energy consumer includes an environmental energy source; an energy storage unit being electrically connected to the environmental energy source and configured to operate with the environmental energy source; and a control unit connected to the environmental energy source and to the energy storage unit, the control unit further comprising an authentication unit configured to periodically authenticate operation of the energy storage unit with the environmental energy source such that, upon authentication by the authentication unit, the control unit enables energy to flow from the environmental energy source to the energy storage unit.
