In 2024, global average battery prices fell 20% to $115 per kWh, driven by excess production capacity in China and burgeoning low-cost battery chemistries like lithium iron phosphate.
New York, December 10, 2024 – Battery prices saw their biggest annual drop since 2017. Lithium-ion battery pack prices dropped 20% from 2023 to a record low of $115 per kilowatt-hour, according to analysis by research provider BloombergNEF (BNEF).
The global average price of lithium-ion battery packs has fallen by 20% year-on-year to USD 115 (EUR 109) per kWh in 2024, marking the steepest decline since 2017, according to BloombergNEF's annual battery price survey, unveiled on Tuesday. Battery storage system. Image by: Aurora Energy Research.
The finance group revised its global battery demand growth projection to 29% for 2024, down from the previous estimate of 35%, with a 31% growth expected in 2023. Goldman also forecasts a 40% reduction in battery pack prices over 2023 and 2024, followed by a continued decline to reach a total 50% reduction by 2025-2026.
According to the survey, average battery prices are expected to slip below $100 per kWh as soon as 2026. This is widely considered the “price parity” threshold with ICE vehicles. By 2030, prices could fall as low as $69 per kWh. The study also points out that geopolitical uncertainties and slower demand could impact pricing.
BNEF forecasts pack prices to decline by USD 3 per kWh in 2025. (USD 1 = EUR 0.950) The global average price of lithium-ion battery packs has fallen by 20% year-on-year to USD 115 (EUR 109) per kWh in 2024, marking the steepest decline since 2017, according to BloombergNEF's annual battery price survey, unveiled on Tuesday.
Bloomberg is not the only one predicting that EV battery prices will continue plummeting. Goldman Sachs Research predicts prices will fall 50% by 2026 compared to 2023. At that, prices would slip below $80 per kWh, down from $149 per kWh in 2023. Add Electrek to your Google News feed.
