About this Electricity making game
“Energy Chains: Make Electricity” is an interactive activity where you build a chain that turns energy from one form into electricity. In this simulation, you choose different pieces for your chain—like a fuel source and a converter—to see how energy flows from one step to the next. The goal is to design a chain that produces a good amount of electricity while showing that some energy is lost along the way.
As you work through the activity, you can see your choices reflected in graphs and tables that compare your predicted output with what actually happens. By selecting different energy sources and conversion devices, you learn how each piece affects the overall efficiency of your chain. This helps you understand that making electricity isn’t just about picking one part, but about how all parts work together.
Overall, “Energy Chains: Make Electricity” gives you a hands-on way to explore how energy is transformed and used. It makes the ideas of energy flow and conversion clear by letting you experiment with your own designs and see immediate results. This fun simulation builds your problem-solving skills and shows you that every link in the chain is important when it comes to generating electricity.
