People. Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of our daily project deadlines and the competition coming, we forget that we deeply depend on each other. It all comes down to the hardworking people surrounding us, day by day, showing up. This is Lina, hydro team, doing something so simple as marking measurements.

Thanks to our teams, our pole leaders and all the people supporting us continuously.
