Base year costs for utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are based on a bottom-up cost model using the data and methodology for utility-scale BESS in (Ramasamy et al., 2023). The bottom-up BESS model accounts for major components, including the LIB pack, the inverter, and the balance of system (BOS) needed for the installation.
Measure the electrolyte temperature of 10% or more of the battery cells. At least once per year, the quarterly inspection will be augmented as follows: In the case of a lead-antimony battery, measure and record specific gravity and electrolyte temperature of all cells.
Figure ES-2 shows the overall capital cost for a 4-hour battery system based on those projections, with storage costs of $245/kWh, $326/kWh, and $403/kWh in 2030 and $159/kWh, $226/kWh, and $348/kWh in 2050.
In 2019, battery cost projections were updated based on publications that focused on utility-scale battery systems (Cole and Frazier 2019), with updates published in 2020 (Cole and Frazier 2020) and 2021 (Cole, Frazier, and Augustine 2021). There was no update published in 2022.
Battery storage costs have evolved rapidly over the past several years, necessitating an update to storage cost projections used in long-term planning models and other activities. This work documents the development of these projections, which are based on recent publications of storage costs.
Total System Cost ($/kW) = [Battery Pack Cost ($/kWh) × Battery Energy Capacity (kWh) + Battery Power Capacity (kW) × BOS Cost ($/kW) + Battery Power Constant ($)] / Battery Power Capacity (kW) For more information on the power versus energy cost breakdown, see (Cole and Frazier, 2020). For items included in CAPEX, see the table below.
