We caught up with a partner at insurance broker Lockton about recent developments in the space, including the ramifications – or lack thereof – of the recent Moss Landing fire on insuring BESS projects going forward.

The Board of Supervisors (BoS) of Orange County, California, has enacted an emergency moratorium on the approval of any new BESS facilities proposed for unincorporated areas of the county in order to protect the “health, safety and welfare” of its residents.
