ElectriTaste - Savor the Source of Electricity , 2023

In our daily lives, we consume electricity without much thought about its origins. ElectriTaste invites you to savor the flavor of your electricity, to understand where it comes from and how it impacts our planet. Just as we appreciate the wine, let's become connoisseurs of our energy sources – from fossil fuels to renewables – and make conscious choices for a greener future.

We have turned a wine tasting into an energy drink tasting, as a symbol of transforming our passive energy consumption into an active and informed choice. Consider this: to produce the same amount of electricity, different sources of energy have vastly different CO2 emissions. For instance, while fossil fuels emit approximately 500 grams of CO2 per kilowatt-hour (gCO2/kWh), renewables like wind and solar emit only about 5 grams of CO2/kWh. Therefore, it's time to understand the diverse “origins” of electricity, just as we would appreciate the origins in a fine wine. Together, we can toast to a greener, more sustainable future, one sip at a time.
