The consumption and production of energy lies at the core of one of the biggest challenges we face today—climate change. But how much do we know about the energy we use (and waste) every day? What decisions would we make differently if we knew more? How can we use augmented reality (AR) technology on smart phones as an educational tool?

On march 11th, 2011, an offshore earthquake of magnitude 9 resulted in japan’s Fukushima nuclear disaster. As a consequence, Switzerland decided to begin the process of withdrawing from nuclear energy, which required a new revised energy strategy - Energy Strategy 2050.

ES50 360°, AR App, allows the user to choose their own path through an augmented landscape of decisions and measures from the strategy. These paths provide understandings of the actions and how they have led/contributed to, or are currently involved, in the strategy and reaching the goal of net zero emissions for 2050.
