🚨🏡 New visualisation alert! Over the past few months I've been working on a 3D "scrollytelling" experience that showcases various low-carbon tech for homes. It's called Octo House and you can find it here: octopus.energy/octo-house/

If these figures are anything to go by, it is indeed going to be a happy new year 😊 if you're new to @baking4cast (hello), well over half of GB electricity is currently coming from wind, solar, and hydro power!

✅We need more renewable generators, but also ✅We can get the renewable ⚡️% up by focusing on energy demand reduction ✅We can make use of high renewable ⚡️% times (like tomorrow), but also ✅We can ask our MPs what they are doing to support home energy efficiency

@TheMagPi Here is v1 of my universal analog meter with eink display that can be set to any scale (here for example renewable elec on GB grid and moon phase). Parts: @Raspberry_Pi zero, @waveshare00 display, @Meccano gears. I'll put a video of it in action in the reply

I've been running @openbookuk's e-ink display for @octopus_energy Agile and @baking4cast info for a few weeks now. I have to say I find it super-useful. And the @pimoroni Inky display looks good in an old cassette case stand (if I say so myself) twitter.com/openbookuk/sta…

@TheMagPi Renewable electricity forecast +@octopus_energy Agile pricing display; uses Pi 0 + @pimoroni Inky wHAT. Helps plan home appliance use to minimise carbon footprint & save money. like @baking4cast uses @ng_eso's carbon intensity api. webapp to switch screens tinyurl.com/3num92fg

Experimenting with ambient info/art this weekend. This portrait stands in my kitchen and smiles/frowns depending on current level of renewable generation (via @ng_eso) and @octopus_energy Agile price. Uses a @Raspberry_Pi Zero and low-powered @pimoroni eink display.

If you are looking for teaching activities, here is a great one from @EnergySparks 👇 with the amazing bonus that you hopefully get baked goods at the end of it. Great to see shouldibake.com used in this way😀 Please share and let us know how you get on!

@baking4cast @FloodSkinner cool! have a look at github.com/openbook/shoul… for an example of how I got it working with the larger wHAT. You should be able to reuse a lot of that (the lib at least), you'll need to create new display layout specifically for the smaller pHAT. Happy to offer any help though...
