Aamulehti reports on a Turenki businessman looking to disrupt Finland's electricity market by installing thousands of batteries in people's homes.

Jukka Järvinen's Teravoima plans to charge these domestic batteries when electricity from renewable sources is cheap and sell the power onto the grid when prices rise.

It is one way to decarbonise the electricity system, and the company offers big benefits to consumers: they would pay just 20 euros a month to rent the battery and 4 cents per kilowatthour of electricity they use — with no transfer charges.

It sounds good, and Teravoima has thousands of people signed up on the waiting list but AL raises some relevant questions about the company's plans. The batteries are rented from a Chinese firm — so what happens if either company goes bust?

It would be the first company in Finland to sell electricity from domestic batteries onto the secondary market, so is that a viable business model?

Järvinen says the company will start installing batteries in the new year.

He says the cost of batteries is likely to plummet, and this business model will become widespread as people look to capitalise on abundant, clean energy — but it remains to be seen if his vision can come to fruition.

40m tax revenues lost

Kauppalehti reports on the surprisingly large number of Finnish firms with links to organised crime.

The paper cites a report from the Tax Administration which suggests nearly 2,000 companies in Finland are run by people with links to organised crime.

The typical firm identified by the administration operates in Uusimaa and is in the construction, property or car trades.

Around 40 million euros of tax revenue is lost each year thanks to organised crime, according to the Tax Administration.

Icy swim therapy

Helsingin Sanomat carries a story about a study currently underway into how cold water swimming could help those suffering from anxiety and depression.

Previous research has demonstrated that swimming in cold water helps trigger endorphin release and thereby promotes mental health.

But researchers from Jyväskylä University are now looking at whether a dip in icy waters before therapy sessions can help patients open up.

"Many of those in the study have previously said that they are at the mercy of their anxiety and they haven't been able to affect it," said psychotherapist Riikka Airo, who is running the study.

The shock of a plunge into cold water can help trigger a powerful physiological reaction, forcing people to simply focus on breathing.

Airo compares the practice to mindfulness of psychophysical therapy, which aims to strengthen the bond between mind and body and find ways to manage stress.

The full results of the study are due next autumn.
