In Finland, this giant battery is helping heat apartments and offices-using sand

A small town in Finland is experimenting with a new type of infrastructure: the world's largest sand battery. The battery-a 42-foot-tall, nearly 50-foot-wide silo filled with 2,000 tons of crushed stone-sits on the edge of a parking lot. When there's extra renewable electricity on the grid and power is cheap, the system uses electricity to heat up the crushed stone. That heat is stored in the battery until nearby buildings need to use it.

Japan has opened its first osmotic power plant, in the south-western city of Fukuoka. Only the second power plant of its type in the world, it is expected to generate about 880,000 kilowatt hours of electricity each year enough to help power a desalination plant that supplies fresh water to the city and neighbouring areas. That's the equivalent of powering about 220 Japanese households, according to Dr Ali Altaee from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), who specialises in the development of alternative water sources.
