Methods and systems of capturing and reporting information related to the
micro-generation of consumable electricity are disclosed. Some methods
and systems include the following: attaching an electricity generation
unit to a human-powered piece of exercise equipment, the electricity
generation unit being adapted to generate consumable energy and capture
information related to the consumable electricity generated; attaching a
radio frequency identification writer to the electricity generation unit
for capturing and conveying information related to the consumable
electricity generated by the electricity generation unit; providing a
radio frequency identification tag; conveying the information from the
electricity generation unit to the radio frequency identification tag via
the radio frequency identification writer; conveying the information
directly from the electricity generation unit to a database; and
transferring the information stored on the radio frequency identification
tag to the database.
