Grasshopper can be used to visualize data when you combine external information from internet and other programs such as Excel. We decided to look into the total amount of energy generated (kilowatts/hour) by each country during the year 2008.

This research is very important and useful to our group because we are working with this type of data in the Self Sufficient Studio. This gives us the chance to visualize the countries with the highest amount of energy production, since it relates directly to how much energy these countries consume. We can also compare Spain to the other leading countries of the world to see which will be a good target for the amount of energy that has to be produced or replaced by sustainable methods and systems for clean generation of energy.
