Balancing the Grid
Step into the control room at the ESO to balance the electricity supply and demand!
Step into the control room at the ESO to balance the electricity supply and demand!
We were happy to collaborate with Creamos to develop this game for National Grid, Great Britain’s electricity system operator.
Players are tasked with keeping the system frequency within the safe operational limits as the electricity demand goes up and down during the day.
Learn about the many factors that affect demand and supply such as the country waking up, wind speeds and big public events. Be wary of unexpected outages and import or export energy when necessary.
This game is available to play for free on the National Grid ESO’s website.
