True, in the game speed generates energy that is harvested by the charge fins. I am speaking about how it would compare to the real life energy transfer: the kinetic energy would be converted to the electrical one; but it matters where the energy is coming from and what it converts to. The sum of all energy gained and lost has to equal zero in any system, first law of thermodynamics.

Charge fins are similar to the real life bicycle light generator, where a small generator converts some of bike's kinetic energy into electrical one to power the light bulb. But, in the case of charge fins; the generator powers the lights and the entire bicycle altogether. That would be pure magic :)
