We have designed services for energy production and distribution in a future landscape and investigated how local energy production could affect the current system. 

Recent advancements in technology are enabling individuals to take charge of their own energy production. This allows us to rethink how we produce and distribute energy. We have designed the service, Arcs The Energy Collective, as a way to manifest future opportunities that could arise when local energy is produced alongside that of big electric utilities. Arcs is a service that facilitates a financial link between personal producers and consumers. Arcs allows people to buy renewable energy directly from producers in their own neighbourhood (utilizing the local grid) and from national sources when needed.
