And the infrastructure that makes all this possible is one of humanity’s most important and fascinating engineering achievements: the power grid. -Patreon:   / practicalengineering   -Website: http://practical.engineering Writing/Editing/Production: Grady Hillhouse Tonic and Energy by Elexive is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution License Source:    • Elexive - Tonic and Energy [Creative ...   This video is sponsored by NordVPN.
