UNIVERSAL POWER ACCESS

Technicians work on a power transmission line at a village in Yushu， northwest Chinas Qinghai Province， to bring electricity to the last group of 39，800 people in the country without power.

Since late December 2015， people living in remote areas on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have been able to light their homes with electricity. The State Grid Qinghai Electric Power Co. spent 2.1 billion yuan （$324 million） on the project and more than 5，000 workers were involved.
