e. Tracing the origin of Britain's fuel and energy

Most of the fuel and energy we depend on comes from a relatively small number of key installations. Just a few large facilities provide most of the fuel, gas and electricity which drives the rest of the country. Includes aerial shots of Stanlow Oil Refinery in Cheshire, Bacton Gas Terminal in Norfolk and Drax Power Station in Yorkshire. With a few major facilities providing much of our energy, the electricity transmission network is highly important.
