This is a quirky little tool from the Open University.

Click "Create" to drag and drop eg a wind farm and a nuclear power station to see how much power each would supply and play at creating your own power grid.

Click "Discover" to see how many homes in your area you could power with each energy type.

It's certainly educational, showing how much of each energy type is needed to power homes!
