The Energy and Technology Museum presents a new interactive exhibition, \u201cThe Development of Energy in Lithuania.\u201d Opening to visitors on December 11, the exhibition invites audiences to explore the evolution of Lithuania\u2019s energy sector\u2014from kerosene lamps and the first power plants to modern green energy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The exhibition was created to engage visitors with key stages in the history of energy and to show how technologies and engineering projects have shaped modern Lithuania. Interactive elements, audio recordings, and historical photographs allow visitors not only to learn, but also to experience how one of the first electric light bulbs in Lithuania was lit, how the Vilnius Central Power Plant operated, what role the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant played, and how generators using renewable energy sources function today.<\/p>\n

In addition, visitors can learn how the electricity system operated in the past and what differences can be seen today. They will be able to observe real-time data on Lithuania\u2019s electricity production, revealing how much energy is generated in the country from solar, wind, hydropower, and other sources. The exhibition complements the museum\u2019s educational activities and helps visitors better understand how the energy system works today.<\/p>\n

And\u017eej Kuldo\u0161, Head of the Museum\u2019s Creative Workshops, says that the history of energy was presented in a way that is accessible to visitors of all ages. \u201cThe history of energy is inseparable from Lithuania\u2019s modernization and our everyday lives. We wanted visitors to see how energy sources have changed over more than a century and how this has shaped society. Interactivity allows information not only to be shared, but also experienced firsthand,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Mykolas Bistrickas, Director of the Energy and Technology Museum, emphasizes that the new exhibition strengthens the museum\u2019s mission to present complex topics in an engaging and contemporary way. \u201cThe museum building itself is part of energy history, so we feel a responsibility to present this topic thoroughly, yet in an understandable manner,\u201d the director notes.<\/p>\n

The exhibition \u201cThe Development of Energy in Lithuania\u201d is intended for both individual visitors and school groups. It helps connect historical decisions with current energy transformations and offers an opportunity to see how Lithuania has become a modern energy system integrated into European networks.<\/p>\n

The exhibition has been open to visitors at the Energy and Technology Museum since December 11.<\/p>\n

The project is funded by the Lithuanian Council for Culture.<\/p>\n
