Have you ever stopped to think about what happens when the power goes out? Energy powers everything we do. It lights our homes. Keeps us warm. Moves goods and people around the world. It drives economies and shapes our quality of life. Yet far too many people still lack reliable access to modern energy.

When you’re working inside an active military base, there’s no room for error. Every detail matters, from compliance and safety to programme certainty and long-term durability.
