Energy Consumption and CO2 Emission Dashboard with Tableau Extensions
We have created a dashboard about energy and utilities in the Netherlands, which is aimed to give the users a magazine like reading experience.
Extensions have been used to enhance the look and value in this dashboard, in this blog we will dive into how those extensions are used.
Featured Extensions:

The Horizon chart from ShowMeMore has been used to show the amount of energy produced overtime, the darker the area, the higher the production.
You can also explore the electricity production overtime from different sources such as wind, hydro, solar and bioenergy:
Finally you can use the parameter to explore the Co2 emissions from oil, coal or gas within Europe, as well as viewing the emissions overtime per country:
