The energy storage system is a 4MW, 32MWh NaS battery consisting of 80 modules, each weighing 3 600 kg. The total cost of the battery system was USD 25 million and included USD 10 million for construction of the building to house the batteries (built by Burns & McDonnell) and the new substation at Alamito Creek.
According to BloombergNEF (BNEF), more than $262 billion of investment will be needed for stationary energy storage by 2030. BNEF's 2021 Global Energy Storage Outlook projects significant growth in this sector, with Yayoi Sekine, the firm's head of decentralized energy, stating that 'this is the energy storage decade'.
Additional storage technologies will be added as representative cost and performance metrics are verified. The interactive figure below presents results on the total installed ESS cost ranges by technology, year, power capacity (MW), and duration (hr).
