Rystad Energy ''s analysis estimates battery system costs at a flat €60 ($67) per MWh. Some experts argue that so far energy storage is not a major issue in Bulgaria, thanks to Bulgaria''s plentiful operational coal and
Specifically, according to data presented by Soltani at the RE-Source Southeast Conference, Bulgaria’s electricity market offers an opportunity for €110 per MWh profit with a battery energy storage system with two hours of discharge capacity using energy arbitrage. Rystad Energy’s analysis has set the battery system costs at a flat €60 per MWh.
Sepehr Soltani, lead energy storage analyst at Norwegian consultancy Rystad Energy told the RE-Source Southeast Conference that took place in Sofia, Bulgaria, in May that Bulgaria offers the highest revenue potential for battery storage in Europe.
Storage facilities should have a capacity for a duration of at least 4 hours and a capacity of at least 30% of the total installed capacity of the RES facility. For RES with an installed capacity of 100MWp, the minimum stored 978-1-6654-9026-9/22/$31.00 ©2022 IEEE capacity is required to be 30MW or 120MWh for a lithium-ion battery .
In , batteries are required to have an installed capacity of 30% of that of the renewable generation capacity and be capable of supplying a rated load for a duration of at least 4 hours. It is easily calculated that the largest single energy storage facilities should have a capacity of around 20 MWh.
