Finnish city inaugurates 1 MW/100 MWh sand battery. The concept is simplicity itself. Make a really big pile of sand. Heat it with excess renewable electricity to around 500°C (932°F), then use that heat later to heat homes, factories, even swimming pools.

This is really cool – truly a “keep it simple” solution.
