Noise Modelling
Why Choose Enhar for Preliminary Noise Assessments?
Our Preliminary Noise Assessments are designed to proactively address noise challenges at the earliest stages of renewable energy projects:
Our Approach
Enhar employs cutting-edge tools and a streamlined process to deliver actionable insights:
- SoundPLAN Modeling: We use SoundPLAN software for accurate noise modeling and propagation analysis, predicting impacts at sensitive receptors under various conditions.
- Preliminary Noise Checks: Through desktop simulations and site-specific data, we provide reliable initial assessments to guide project planning. Our quick turnaround ensures your project remains compliant with EPA and planning requirements, while guiding cost-effective design refinements.
- Tailored Mitigation Options: Enhar proposes multiple practical solutions, such as acoustic barriers, equipment repositioning, or low-noise technology, ensuring flexibility without compromising project capacity.
- Pathway to Validation: We recommend engaging renowned noise consultants, acoustic engineers, or specialists for final validation, ensuring robust compliance with regulatory standards while maintaining project scope and efficiency.
This approach ensures your project is well-prepared for regulatory scrutiny while seamlessly transitioning to expert validation.

Noise Modelling
Preliminary Noise Assessments to de-Risk Your Battery Project
Noise Modelling
Enhar specializes in Preliminary Noise Assessments to support battery energy storage systems (BESS) through site selection and Development Approval phases, with a focus on balancing capacity, constructability and noise compliance. Our assessments inform both land acquisition decisions and post-acquisition design refinements, identifying noise-related risks early to ensure smoother regulatory approvals and minimize costly delays.
We guide clients to select sites with sufficient distance to sensitive receptors and to use high performing equipment brands with verified noise data. Once land acquisition is advanced, if noise challenges persist, Enhar refines layout designs to achieve compliance with EPA noise limits. We collaborate with leading acoustic consultants who use Enhar's optimised designs as inputs to their acoustic reports for submission to planning authorities, increasing the project's ability to achieve noise compliance, avoid operational curtailment and still maintain project capacity and constructability.

Land Aquisition
Secure optimum land where grid and development approval prospects are strong
Land Aquisition
Need to secure land before spending big bucks on grid enquiries?
Competition for grid capacity and land is fierce.
Enhar targets strategic grid capacity locations where suitable land is available to secure the right land in the right locations. Such places include lower value grazing country adjacent to substations, with unrestrictive planning zoning.
Our team researches landowners before meeting face to face so we can get straight down to business.
Through experienced landowner negotiation, Enhar secures Lease Option agreements which are commercially and legally sound.
