The energy project website is now live and includes the scenarios, and a policy paper and recommendations that have arisen from the design work - we are keen for feedback - please do vote on the ideas and policies or contribute your own ideas.

Well, the Windmill is very pretty, but breaks quite a few UI design guidelines.
1. no indication of what the numbers mean - esp. the red numbers inside the power output dial
2. the black text on dark gray is very hard to read
3. can't see any decimal points in the various number displays
4. can't see current location except by scrolling through a long list.
Sorry to be so pickey, but coming from the Design Council this sets a poor example.
