A system for supplying energy to an electrical consumer—in particular, for charging a battery-operated device—preferably, a vehicle with an electric drive—includes an energy station, a mobile terminal, and a computing device. The energy station has a communications device for exchanging data with the mobile terminal, and data can be transmitted from the mobile terminal via a transmitting device to the computing device so that data from the energy station can be transferred via the mobile terminal to the computing device. Moreover, an energy station and a method for transmitting energy to an electrical consumer are presented.
