In a 3D town with nuclear, coal, hydro, solar and wind plants, set plant output and transmission voltage through one day to keep the lights on. Trace energy conversion and efficiency inside a coal plant, see I = P/V and the I²R loss on the line, and test turns ratios and why a transformer needs AC.
