Serious games related to energy consumption and energy efficiency

Clim’Way:
The game aims at showing how, in a Western industrialized country like France, one can opt for
sustainable lifestyles, beneficial to earth and its inhabitants. Players have 50 game turns (= 50 years)
to set up actions that will reduce energy consumption, develop renewable energies, divide GHG
emissions by four, and adapt Clim’City to climate change.

the consumption of energy, increase energy efficiency, and choose the best renewable energies There
are three advisors – economical, environmental, and social – to help players take good decisions to
improve the collective future.

Energy City:
In Energy City, players will work through a selection of 6 cities; each has its own energy detail variations
and challenges, as they play a 10-year normal play or a 20-year expert play. Players must watch out
and observe the important 3 meters displayed on the top of their screen, providing details about the
city’s local air quality, environmental impact, and budget.

2050 Calculator:
The UK is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050, relative to
1990 levels. To do this we must decarbonize the UK economy while ensuring secure and affordable
energy supplies.
