A "Consumer Grid" provides the individual-based counterpartto the organisation-based computational Grid. Wedescribe a Peer-to-Peer system for utilising computationalresources on the Grid - extending existing work undertakenin systems such as Entropia and SETI@home. The potentialof such a distributed computing resource has been in someways demonstrated recently by the SETI@home project,having used over 650,000 years of CPU time at the timeof writing. A user develops applications within such an environmentusing a visual workflow system called "Triana"- which automatically generates suitable code for distribution,and can support the user in making placement decisionsfor their modules. Triana will also be deployed as theworkflow enactment engine along with the Grid ApplicationToolkit (GAT) within the European GridLab project.
