You might be thinking “what makes sound at a battery energy storage facility?” The main noise sources from a BESS facility are: Cooling systems Like any electronic device, grid scale battery systems operate most optimally and safely at an ideal temperature and humidity. Therefore, various air or liquid cooling and. While BESS facilities are relatively new developments, each of these noise sources are common among many other industries that have been around for a very long time. Therefore, we have the tools necessary to design. When planning for a battery energy storage site, it is important to enlist the help of acoustical consultants to navigate the regulatory process surrounding noise, and to make sure the right noise controls are implemented. With a.
