What is the resource about?
Prispevek predstavlja aplikacijo Electricity Maps kot orodje za spremljanje proizvodnje in porabe električne energije, virov energij, čezmejnih tokov in ogljičnega odtisa posameznih držav. Pokaže, kako lahko učitelji aplikacijo vključijo v pouk za boljše razumevanje obnovljivih virov, emisij in sprotnih energetskih podatkov.
What is the resource about? (in English)
This paper introduces the Electricity Maps app as a tool for monitoring how different countries produce and consume electricity, highlighting energy sources, cross‑border electricity flows and carbon footprints. It shows how teachers can use the app to help students understand renewable energy, emissions and real‑time electricity data in an engaging, practical way.
Why is the resource useful for VET actors?
Če želite dijakom približati vpliv proizvodnje električne energije na okolje, ta vir ponuja praktično digitalno orodje, ki omogoča jasen prikaz ogljičnega odtisa, energetskega miksa in dnevnih nihanj proizvodnje v različnih državah. Odlično podpira energetsko pismenost in povezovanje teorije z dejanskimi podatki.
Why is the resource useful for VET actors? (in English)
If you want students to explore the impact of electricity generation on the environment, this resource offers a ready‑to‑use digital tool that makes carbon footprints, energy mixes and daily production patterns easy to visualise and compare between countries. It’s an effective way to build energy literacy and connect theory with real‑world data.
