Silenced Utility Scale Electrical Storage Device
An electrical storage unit may include a container, one or more power cells disposed within the container, a cooling mechanism disposed within the container, and a noise reduction system disposed within container. In some instances, the electrical storage unit includes active components, passive components, or both.
Noise emission reduction system
A noise emission reduction system includes a solenoid couplable to a shielding member, and to a frame of a vehicle. The solenoid is controllable to induce vibration of the shielding member in relation to the frame of the vehicle. A microphone is configured to receive sound emitted by a noise source. An accelerometer is couplable to the frame and a controller is coupled to the solenoid, to the microphone, and to the accelerometer. The controller is configured to: receive a first signal from the accelerometer; receive a second signal from the microphone; determine a control signal for the solenoid based on the first signal and the second signal; and control the solenoid using the determined control signal to induce vibration of the shielding member in relation to the frame.
