Middle East :
For a long time, the Middle East has been mainly rich in oil. However, oil wells are running out and in some countries in this region the first nuclear power plants are being built. Their number will increase in the future as soon as oil resources diminish. It is likely that other sources of energy will then also play a role, such as the recycling of plastic waste.
Players start the game with an oversupply of oil. They also have access to natural gas and can buy some solar panels. At the beginning of the game, however, players do not yet have access to waste recycling and nuclear power.
At level 2, the excess oil and natural gas will dry up and waste and nuclear power plants will then be available as alternatives. Players are therefore forced to adjust their power plant gauge in the middle of the game.
South Africa :
South Africa's energy supply is almost exclusively provided by a company that is the seventh largest electricity producer in the world. About 90 percent of the energy is generated from fossil fuels in coal-fired power plants.
In addition, South Africa also operates nuclear power stations and, to a lesser extent, hydroelectric and wind power stations.
Due to its size, the group also supplies electricity to "half" of Africa. That is why there are six international electricity connections and a lot of coal on this map.
