Carbon Brief has mapped the UK's ability stations inwards guild to demo where together with how the province meets it's ability demands. The map provides a fascinating insight into where the unlike types of ability station are sited inwards the UK.
The map uses colored proportional circle markers, which are used to demo both the capacity of each ability station together with how they are fueled. The colors of the markers indicates how the ability station is fueled together with the size of the marking represents the station's capacity inwards megawatts.
The How the U.K. Generates its Electricity map too includes the option to filter the station shown past times type of ability station. This allows you lot to see where the unlike types of ability stations are concentrated inside the UK. For illustration solar powered stations are well-nigh alone concentrated to the southward of the country, inwards areas which conk the most hours of sunlight.
Coal powered stations are concentrated mainly inwards the due north of England close historic coal mining communities. Wind farms tend to live on concentrated only about the coast together with on higher ground. All the UK's nuclear ability stations are located on the coast inwards guild to live on close a ready provide of cooling water.
