we have the biggest battery, i think, in the danish kingdom. we don t have any subsea cables to neighbouring countries. so we need to maintain the stability of the power system at all points in time on a millisecond level. much of the country s power will come from wind, hydro and solar, but that s also where its experiment with tidal energy comes in. it s predictable. we know exactly when it s there, 100 years ahead. if we install tidal turbines in different spots, we will have a baseload generation from tides, and that is extremely valuable. if we can unlock the potential, it can really dramatically change the energy mix in the islands. maybe 30 to a0% of the annual usage in the islands could be provided by tides. now this dragon has begun to fly, and it s sending energy to the grid. it s just one machine, but potentially a big leap forward for harnessing energy from our seas.
that s the first utility, or the array device. there will be many of these in parks, orarrays, as you call them, uh, around the world. the faroes aren t connected to any other country s power grid, so it has to be self sufficient. and in the past, it relied heavily on oil imports. now, though, it s going fully green, and this battery station helps to regulate electricity supply. we have the biggest battery, i think, in the danish kingdom. we don t have any subsea cables to neighbouring countries. so we need to maintain the stability of the power system at all points in time on a millisecond level. much of the country s power will come from wind, hydro and solar, but that s also where its experiment with tidal energy comes in. it s predictable. we know exactly when it s there, 100 years ahead. if we install tidal turbines in different spots, we will have a baseload generation from tides, and that is extremely valuable.
Archaeologists in the Swedish city of Halmstad have unearthed an astonishing four-foot-long sword next to the remains of an elite man who lived in the late 15th or early 16th century.
