A phone on charge, a diesel car, a gas heater on: energy is present in every act of our daily lives. We are so used to their presence that we forget that they have to be produced, transformed and that their use has consequences for our planet.

This exhibition focuses on one energy: electricity. Are you aware that it occurs in nature? You must be! Do you know the scientists who have been involved in mastering it? Did you know that in Belgium it was mainly produced from fossil resources? So many questions are addressed in this exhibition and will undoubtedly give you food for thought.
