MT. PLEASANT LATEST TOWN TO APPROVE SIX-MONTH BESS MORATORIUM

Mt. Pleasant Latest Town to Approve Six-Month BESS Moratorium
September 25, 2024--Martin Wilbur

Mount Pleasant became the latest municipality to approve a six-month moratorium earlier this month that would temporarily halt the development of new battery energy storage systems (BESS) while officials hope to get effective regulations in place.

Residents who spoke at the Sept. 10 hearing that preceded the vote, panned or were highly skeptical about whether the systems could operate safely within the town. There have been multiple reports of serious fires that have been ignited with the systems across the United States, calling into question how town residents can be kept safe.   MORE AT Mt.
