A btu is defined as the amount of energy required to raise 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit. This tells us that to store one btu of heat, you would need to raise 5 pounds of sand by 1 degree Fahrenheit. So, for each degree that you raise your 12,414 pounds of sand, you will be storing 2483 btus. (12,414/5 = 2483)

Latent heat storage utilizes phase change materials (PCMs) to store and release heat energy during the transition between phases, such as solid to liquid or liquid to gas.
The sand is able to store heat at around 500–600C (932–1,112F) for months, so power generated in the summer can be used to heat homes in the winter. Polar Night Energy says it has 100 kW of
Sand batteries capitalize on the ubiquitous and cost-effective nature of sand, heating it to high temperatures to efficiently store energy. This stored heat can be used to generate steam, which in turn produces electricity, offering a practical solution to the intermittency problem of renewable sources.
It is a well-known fact that sand can store energy in the form of heat. Sand batteries could replace conventional batteries to store energy produced more than online consumption by wind and solar generators. The energy is converted to heat, which can heat buildings or supply hot steam and high-temperature process heat to sectors of
It is connected to a local district heating grid and it provides heat for a couple of buildings. The pilot enables testing, validation and optimization of the heat storage solution.

Sand batteries can store excess thermal energy from renewable sources, such as solar or wind power, and release it during colder periods to fulfill the heating requirements of communities,
The cost per kilowatt-hour for CAES ranges from $150 to $300, while for pumped hydropower it is about $60. A lithium-ion battery would cost $300 a kilowatt-hour and only have a capacity to store energy from one to four hours. With a duration lasting hundreds of hours, sand as a storage medium would cost from $4 to $10 a kilowatt-hour.
Could a sand battery help us store renewable energy more cheaply? (Credit: Polar Night Energy) A new way of storing renewable energy is providing clean
Being able to work at temperatures as high as 600°C (1112°F), sand stores more energy per unit of volume than water, which can''t go above 100 °C (212°F) for obvious reasons. Polar Night Energy said that their battery is about 3x more energy dense than water-based sensible TES. 34.
