40 years of energy consumption in the UK: where do we get our power from?
Sustainable energy experts Evo Energy and designers Epiphany have created a series of interactive graphics illustrating the changing face of energy consumption in the UK since 1970. The top panel breaks down the primary energy sources used to produce energy consumed in the UK. Beneath that are the same figures but for processed energy, i.e including electricity generated from primary sources. Three further graphics show consumption by sector, total UK consumption and changes in energy intensity. Follow the instructions on the visualisations to explore interactive content.
