Meet Roach’s mouse-tailed dormouse: https://thehabitatfoundation.org/news
One of Europe’s rarest mammals comes to Topolovgrad on October 18. On that day, The Habitat Foundation will be at the Imperial Eagle festival and present Roach’s mouse-tailed dormouse. Topolovgrad lies in the heart of Sakar, the only region where a healthy population of this dormouse still lives.

Paignton Zoo teamed up with #wildlife charity People’s Trust for Endangered Species (#PTES) and other partners to release 38 hazel dormice into a woodland at National Trust’s Calke Abbey, #Derbyshire, in an attempt to save this endangered species from extinction in the #UK.

The #PitThermalEnergyStorage PTES solution used in Denmark appears significantly cheaper than #CavernThermalEnergyStorage CTES which is popular in Finland.
The 200.000m³ #PTES in Vojens costs about 30 €/m³ whereas #CTES #Varanto in Vantaa costs 200 €/m³.
However, PTES is not pressurised and thus limited to 95°C while #Varanto CTES reaches 140°C, increasing both storage capacity and value of heat.
