Energy storage costs
Wider deployment and the commercialisation of new battery storage technologies has led to rapid cost reductions, notably for lithium-ion batteries, but also for high-temperature sodium-sulphur
View DetailsThe price is the expected installed capital cost of an energy storage system. Because the capital cost of these systems will vary depending on the power (kW) and energy (kWh) rating of the system, a range of system prices is provided. 2. Evolving System Prices
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzed energy storage systems from 2 to 10 hours. The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzes storage system at additional 24- and 100-hour durations.
The survey methodology breaks down the cost of an energy storage system into the following categories: storage module, balance of system, power conversion system, energy management system, and the engineering, procurement, and construction costs.
Battery storage costs have evolved rapidly over the past several years, necessitating an update to storage cost projections used in long-term planning models and other activities. This work documents the development of these projections, which are based on recent publications of storage costs.
Informing the viable application of electricity storage technologies, including batteries and pumped hydro storage, with the latest data and analysis on costs and performance. Energy storage technologies, store energy either as electricity or heat/cold, so it can be used at a later time.

These components are combined to give a total system cost, where the system cost (in $/kWh) is the power component divided by the duration plus the energy component.
