A charging device is configured to deliver power to a portable, power-consuming device, having a profile sensor which can detect information relating to the identity of power-consuming device to which the charging device is connected and may also have a communication channel configured to transmit said information to a remote server. In use, data can be collected or aggregated relating to power-consuming devices by connecting the charging device to the portable power-consuming device; sensing, by a profile sensor in the charging device, information relating to the identity of the power-consuming device; and transmitting the information to a remote server over a communication channel. Collected data may, for example, be used to identify when fuel for a charging device may need replenishment.

Multimode charging device and method

An energy resource management server comprising: means for receiving energy availability messages from remote energy resources and geographic location indicators indicative of the geographical location of said remote energy resources; means for receiving energy request messages from remote energy resources and geographic location indicators indicative of the geographical location of said remote energy resources; a processor configured to determine counterparties in an energy resource transfer based on received energy availability messages and received energy request messages and the geographical location of the remote energy resources, and to transmit, to one or both of the counterparties, location information of the other counterparty of the determined counterparties.
