Projects are increasingly being deployed close to populations as available plots of land become more scarce, making BESS noise a bigger topic than ever before, writes noise and acoustics consultancy Acentech’s Ethan Brush.
The noise of battery energy storage system (BESS) technology has “exploded” as a concern in the last six months, an executive from system integrator Wartsila ES&O said.
While more energy-dense BESS units mean packing more into smaller footprints, they may have additional implications for noise and fire safety, a developer source told Energy-Storage.news.
