  4. DEMAND = PRODUCTION CCGT= combined cycle gas turbines Source: http://www.gridwatch.templar.co.uk/

  5. How do different sources of energy compare to each other? Nuclear energy production is very steady Windenergy production is very variable, as it depends on the weather CCGTis used to match up the difference between demand and production Source: http://www.gridwatch.templar.co.uk/ CCGT= combined cycle gas turbines

  6. How does energy go from the power station to your home? Pictures from Wikimedia Commons
