Noise Guard

Noise compliance that builds trust

Valo's Noise Guard combines purpose-built hardware and acoustic expertise to simplify permitting, support community acceptance, and reduce project risk.

How we ensure compliance

At Valo, noise control isn't a mitigation plan, it's a design principle. We build acoustic performance into every stage of GridSolve™ development, from component engineering to site-specific modelling, so developers get a clear, reliable path to compliance in any market.

  • ISO-compliant testing on every GridSolve™ system
  • Site-specific profiles before ground is broken
  • Layout, component, and system-level solutions

Project delivery

Modelled to fit communities

We model to local standards, refine layouts and operating profiles, and account for third-party equipment. Using CadnaA acoustic modelling, we validate results and collaborate closely with your team for fast, informed decisions.

Product design

Designed quiet, not quieted down

We manage noise at the source, designing our products to reduce noise before it becomes a site issue. The GridSolve™ BESS portfolio is designed to be inherently low in noise through integrated acoustic considerations rather than reactive add-ons.

Faster, easier installation

  • Regulatory confidence

    Designed and tested to meet global and local standards

  • Faster permitting

    Pre-validated acoustic data accelerates approvals

  • Scalable solutions

    Tailored mitigation for diverse site layouts

  • Lower project costs

    Upfront design means no costly retrofits or external barriers

  • Community acceptance

    Quiet operation supports near residential deployment

  • Noise optimised chiller

    Low-noise operation through efficient component design and load-based airflow control

Your path to predictable noise

Systems built to be a lasting, welcomed part of the communities they serve.

  • Measurement & data collection

    ISO-compliant noise measurements on every GridSolve™ system, verified by third-party consultants and documented for nominal and worst-case conditions.

  • Predictive noise modelling

    We work with acoustic consultants to create site-specific noise profiles; factoring in topography, equipment operation modes, day/night requirements, ambient conditions, and other constraints.

  • Tiered mitigation plan

    When more is needed, we mitigate in layers, source-first: system-level optimisation, component-level solutions, layout strategies, and, where regulations demand it, environmental measures.

Our acoustic advantage

A system-level approach to noise control that addresses acoustic performance at the source.

  • Low-vibration architecture

    Minimises tonal and low-frequency noise for quieter performance.

  • Noise optimised chiller

    Low-noise operation through efficient component design and load-based airflow control.

  • Dynamic operational control

    Variable fan speed management balances thermal efficiency with noise reduction

  • Factory-tested mitigation

    Ready-to-deploy accessories, validated in-house, provide additional attenuation wherever a site calls for it.

Certified for the standards that matter

  • ISO 3744:2010

  • ISO 9614-1

  • ISO 9613
