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. BESS units primarily emit noise from their cooling systems, but balance of system (BOS) components like inverters and transformers also produce noise emissions.
The primary function of this role is to advance the development of Wartsila''s Battery Intelligence Platform, a tool that enables customers to get insights from the Energy Management Systems Data. The Senior Data Scientist will assist in the development of algorithms, simulation tools, forecasting methods and optimizations for energy systems
