Students are required to select an energy plan for the energy island from several technologies. As well as making decisions about how to provide energy students need to consider the pollution, reliability and storage of their solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>You can use the interactive game alongside these accompanying resources to support structured learning aimed at CfE levels 3 and 4 (Key stage 3 and 4).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click here to play:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex
