From the transcript
I really want to highlight that utility partnerships are the backbone of making this work. Without the utility operators' buy-in and engagement, this is not a sustainable effort. You know, the community might want it, but if the utility and the staff there aren't bought into this, it is not going to be— it's not going to be a workable system. So we really do try to prioritize our relationship building with these individuals. We will plan on visiting them, taking a tour of the plant.
