Yes, the values are not realistic but I though it would be too much to
introduce Mega Watts in this activity. Also, the number are taken in a
way that the power sources does not exceed too much the consumers, this
make the game play more challenging. Hehe Bruno can talk like a gamer
now ;)

Could be interesting but there is already a lot of thinks to learn from
this activity, it may be confusing to add more. Anyway, I may be wrong.

Thanks for your feedback anyway.

Bruno.
