When Power Gets Loud: Unmasking the Noise Behind Energy Storage Projects

Synopsis

As the global push for decarbonization accelerates, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are becoming a cornerstone of modern power infrastructure. They enable grid flexibility, stabilize renewables, and support peak-shaving in urban and industrial zones. Driven by ambitious climate targets, governments and developers are rapidly deploying BESS near load centers, often close to residential and commercial communities. Yet this market shift brings an often underestimated challenge into sharp focus: noise. This presentation will explore the main sources of BESS noise, the technical and regulatory challenges faced in real project applications, and share field insights on how our AlphaESS solution enables quieter, community-friendly BESS deployments.
