Live Data

These open-source resources are gathered and shared to give an appreciation of some different creative ways that complex energy & climate has been visualised to aid understanding.

Complexity of energy & climate data, considering the dynamic nature and geographical distribution of emissions and renewable resources presents a key challenge in posing solutions to decarbonisation, and designing systems or modelling realistic economics for future projects.
