Science Workshops
This fun, educational workshop explores electricity generation in the Tasmanian context, with a special focus on the renewable sources used in Tasmania. Through hands-on demonstrations and a role-playing simulation of the electricity grid, students gain an appreciation of some of the challenges involved in supplying power to local and external customers using renewables, and some of the solutions (eg pumped storage, external connection) that are or can be used.
