Solar Farm Application & Acoustic Considerations
Solar farms include multiple operational components, each generating noise at different levels. The BESS is the primary noise source, requiring a custom-engineered noise wall to achieve compliance.
Noise Sources & Specifications
1. Solar Component
- Tracker Motors – 66 dB LWA per unit (operate intermittently)
- Central Inverter Units – 88 dB LWA per unit (recommended placement at a safe distance from receptors)
2. Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) – Main Noise Source
- Battery Units (Canadian Solar Solbank 3.0) – 80 dB LWA per unit
- Power Control System Units (SMA Sunny Central Storage UP) – 88 dB LWA per unit
- Medium Voltage Transformers – 70 dB LWA per unit
3. Substation Infrastructure
- High Voltage Transformer – 90 dB LWA per unit
