Brief Background

More and more people are able to generate their own electricity, such as through solar panels. At the moment they have to sell excess to the grid at a low price compared to what they buy grid electricity for. Peer-to-peer trading is a new approach where people sell electricity directly to neighbours. It is the AirBnB of energy – sellers get more, and buyers save compared to buying from the grid.

Original or easy-to-print DIY?

To create the copy by yourself, you can choose between two versions. The original DIY includes all material we use for our game, which requires high-quality printing, and specific elements such as a spinner, tokens, and different coloured matchsticks, which are usually not available at home. If you want just to try out the game and play it with your friends and family or at work with your colleagues, you should choose the easy-to-print DIY as it only needs simple printing and material available in any home.
