Storytelling for Counter-narratives
Module: M4 | Type: Workshop
This publicactuin has been funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union under the project POWER - Prevention Of Weaponization and Enhancing Resilience against Security-related Disinformation on Clean Energy (Reference: 2024-1-RO01-KA220-HED-000245038). Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA). Neither the European Union nor EACEA can be held responsible for them.

Introduction
Now that you know the main clean energy sources and supporting technologies, it is time to see how they work in practice. In this interactive session, you will explore real energy generation data from the four POWER partner countries and their neighbours: Romania, Spain, Malta, and Moldova. By comparing national energy mixes, you will discover how geography, policy, and history shape each country's energy profile — and begin to understand why certain technologies become targets for disinformation campaigns.

OER Learning Objectives
By the end of this lecture, you will be able to:
Read and interpret real energy generation data from Eurostat and IRENA sources.
Compare the energy mixes of Romania, Spain, Malta, and Moldova, identifying the role of each clean energy source.
Analyse how geographical, economic, and policy factors shape national energy profiles.
Discuss which clean energy technologies are most vulnerable to disinformation and explain why.

What is an energy mix?
An energy mix is the combination of different energy sources a country uses to meet its electricity and overall energy needs. Electricity generation mix and primary energy mix are not the same: electricity is only one component of total energy, alongside transport and heating. Sources are typically grouped into fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas), nuclear energy, and renewables (hydro, wind, solar, biomass, geothermal). Every country's energy mix is shaped by its geography (sun, wind, rivers), available resources (fossil fuel reserves, land), policy choices (subsidies, targets), and historical infrastructure. Data from Eurostat and IRENA allow us to compare countries using standardised indicators such as share of renewables in gross electricity consumption (%) and total generation by source (TWh).

Energy mix vs electricity mix: It is important to distinguish between the overall energy mix and the electricity mix. The overall energy mix (or primary energy supply) includes all forms of energy a country consumes — for electricity, heating, transport, and industrial processes. This is measured in tonnes of oil equivalent (toe) or joules, and typically includes large shares of petroleum products (for transport) and natural gas (for heating), which do not appear prominently in the electricity mix. The electricity mix, by contrast, focuses specifically on how a country generates its electrical power — and this is where renewables like wind, solar, and hydro are most visible. When we say "Spain gets 59.7% of its electricity from renewables," we are talking about the electricity mix, not total energy. The total renewable share in Spain's overall energy consumption is lower (around 25%), because transport and heating still rely heavily on fossil fuels.
This Open Educational Resource (OER) has been developed as part of the POWER Project educational platform. This interactive session builds directly on the lecture on Clean Energy Technologies (2.1.1) by putting theory into practice: you will explore real energy generation data from the POWER partner countries — Romania, Spain, Malta, and Moldova — using interactive visualisations based on Eurostat and IRENA open data. By comparing how each country generates its electricity, you will understand the different energy profiles across Europe, identify which clean energy technologies play the largest role in each national context, and discuss which technologies are most vulnerable to disinformation campaigns and why. This resource is designed for both guided classroom use and autonomous online exploration.
Main learning questions addressed:
- What does the energy mix of Romania, Spain, Malta, and Moldova look like, and how do they differ?
- Which clean energy sources dominate in each country, and what geographical or policy factors explain these differences?
- How has the share of renewables evolved over the past decade in each country?
- Which clean energy technologies are most targeted by disinformation, and why might their role in the national mix make them more vulnerable?
