The Islip Town Board unanimously banned new battery energy storage facilities with a capacity over 600 kilowatt-hours, citing ongoing fire and safety concerns after several incidents in the region.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Battery storage founders need to reconsider their deployment plans and local approvals in the US northeast as Islip’s ban opens regulatory risk and restricts market access for large-scale projects.
