In fact, sand can be heated to very high temperatures. It is also very good at storing that heat. For this reason, some Finnish engineers have created a seven-meter-tall sand battery. This large battery tower is filled with about 100 tons of sand. The engineers used some solar panels (太阳能电池板) to produce electricity. The sand can be heated by the electricity to about 500 degrees Celsius (摄氏度) and stay hot for several months. Therefore, the energy stored in summer can be used in winter. The heat can be used to warm homes, offices and even local swimming pools. This green energy technology is still being tested in Finland. The engineers want to spread it to the world as soon as ... ...
