As the demand for renewable energy grows, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have become critical infrastructure for balancing supply and demand. These installations often house high value equipment and sensitive technology, making robust protection essential not only for security but also for operational integrity and compliance. BESS sites are vulnerable to theft, vandalism, and unauthorised access. Installing security fencing such as vertical bar railings, mesh security fencing, and acoustic barriers or enclosures creates a strong physical barrier that deters intruders and safeguards assets. For higher risk sites, LPS 1175 certified fencing and gates provide tested resistance against forced entry, ensuring peace of mind.

The importance of battery storage security fencing
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are long-term investments, often designed to operate for 20 years or more. Protecting these sites is critical, not only because they house high value equipment, but because any damage or downtime can disrupt energy supply and lead to costly repairs.
A robust perimeter is your first line of defence. High quality security fencing with anti-vandal features such as tamper-proof fixings, robust materials and finishes, and certified resistance to forced entry, helps prevent theft, vandalism, and unauthorised access. Choosing fencing that meets recognised standards ensures compliance and peace of mind.
Long Guarantees for Long-Term Protection
Because BESS sites are built to last, your security measures should be too. Opting for fencing with an extended guarantee (such as 25 years) ensures durability against corrosion and wear, reducing maintenance costs and safeguarding your investment for decades.

Example Battery Storage Layout
1. Perimeter Fence - Usually a mesh type fence, good visibility with a combination of security features.
2. Gate Access - Our access points for controlled entry are designed to provide ample space for the transportation of large items, ensuring smooth operational efficiency at all times.
3. Battery Fence - Secondary fence that can delay access during a break-in but also acts as a separator for safety reasons around high-voltage equipment.
4. Noise Fencing - Acoustic Barriers that reduce the noise from generators, air-conditioning units, and other machinery.
5. PIDS - A perimeter intrusion detection system, installed to detect penetration of outer perimeter fencing.
6. Solar Farm Fencing - Perimeter security fencing for solar farms, designed to provide maximum security.
Energy Storage Fencing
Security for energy storage and generation assets involves a combination of security fencing and access control measures, paired with surveillance and perimeter intrusion detection systems. Mesh fencing panels, vertical bar railings, and acoustic barriers are typically used in the protection of battery storage sites.
We specialise in providing customised energy storage fencing solutions for Battery Energy Storage Systems, that deliver security, reliability, and convenient access, for your energy storage and generation site. We have provided a number of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) fencing solutions. Find out more about our solutions below.
Read MoreAcoustic Barriers for BESS
Alongside security, noise mitigation is a growing priority. Energy storage systems often operate near residential or commercial areas, where sound from cooling fans and transformers can cause disruption. Acoustic barriers help reduce noise pollution without compromising airflow or access, supporting compliance with environmental regulations and improving community relations. Security, climb resistance, and concealment are also improved by an acoustic barrier thanks to their solid construction with strong interlocking boards and no hand or footholds.
Solar Farm Security Fencing
Security fencing is essential for renewable energy sites, including solar farms and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). As solar farms expand, BESS installations are often co-located to store excess energy and stabilise supply. This makes protecting both assets critical.
Fencing helps prevent theft, vandalism, and unauthorised access to high value equipment, while also keeping wildlife away from hazardous areas. Choosing the right specification, including height, material, and design, ensures security without compromising environmental or visual considerations.
