Chesterfield finalized a battery energy storage system (BESS) bylaw with location-specific setbacks and coverage limits to regulate large battery installations, aiming to address fire risk concerns ahead of a special Town Meeting and new state solar array regulations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Chesterfield's new bylaw narrows where large battery systems can locate, opening precise compliance paths for developers and shaping project siting ahead of October state solar policy changes. You must adjust your land use plans and client pitches to reflect these local rules before accessing this growing market.
