Report

Power
Where electricity is made and what it is made beside: turbines, transformers, cooling towers.
Dispatch
The line past Doel
A freight railway runs under a cooling tower at twilight, two pieces of infrastructure sharing a horizon and nothing else.
- Report
Seven hundred and fifty kilovolts
A transformer at the top of the transmission range, standing in grass, with the insulators doing the visible work.
- Field Note
The water that cools it
A thermal power station and the reservoir it was built for, photographed as one object because that is what they are.
