I was invited to participate in a small excursion to an electric power transformation station in Sankt Peter-Freienstein, Styria, Austria. At this occasion, I was given a promotion flyer providing some data about APG, the Austrian Power Grid company. This company is owned by 100% by the Verbund AG, Austria’s electric utility.
