Eronen says that "starting a company is a bit like competing in sport: you want to win". Together with Ylönen, he chose to cycle 170km (106 miles) from their home town of Tampere to attend an energy conference in Helsinki in 2018. "All the other participants arrived by car or plane. That made us think: 'we really have to make an impact'."

Viable storage of solar and wind energy is especially critical for Nordic countries which have long hours of darkness and an increased need for heat in the winter, but extended hours of sunlight in the summer. But how exactly does the battery stand up in terms of performance compared with other batteries, in particular its electrochemical counterpart: lithium-ion batteries? Eronen says that by 2023 Polar Night Energy aims to be "a truly global company, constructing sand batteries all over the world". The huge boom in offshore wind power – by 2025 wind energy will cover 25% of Finland's electricity consumption - will help enable this, but there is still "a lot of work to do".
