The Challenge:
To manage the tonal humming and buzzing of high voltage electrical equipment that comes with battery energy storage systems.
The Innovation:
Large-scale energy storage will be a key ingredient of a net zero electricity system, and with it, grid-scale battery storage will be needed to help store surplus energy from various sources and dispatch it on demand when the needs are highest. This emergent technology brings with it tonal humming and buzzing of high voltage electrical equipment that can be disruptive to those nearby. Aercoustics is on the cutting edge of the planning and noise control for battery energy storage systems. We help guide clients through siting, equipment selection, and noise controls. Sites with solid noise controls will help protect the public and will be a welcome addition to both local communities and the entire province.
