Abstract
We consider the supersymmetric solutions of several supergravity theories (ungauged and supergravities coupled to vector supermultiplets and pure supergravity) and show that their generalized Komar charges vanish identically for the supersymmetric Killing vector which is constructed as a bilinear of the Killing spinors of those solutions. This property can be used to prove the supersymmetry (``BPS'') bounds satisfied by some of those solutions in a rigorous, coordinate-independent way.
