Utility or Grid-Scale Battery Storage is essentially what it sounds like: the use of industrial power batteries to store energy that can be accessed when needed. Picture the battery that’s in your cellphone.
MWh (Megawatt-hour) is a measure of energy capacity (how long the system can continue delivering that power output). For example, a 1 MW / 4 MWh BESS has four hours of storage capacity.So, while the system might be $200,000 per MW, the effective cost can be $800,000 per MWh if it has four hours duration.
Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) calculations are based on assumptions on typical performance and characteristics of the technology and resource and intended to serve as a reference point, however project costs are highly sensitive to numerous project- and location-specific factors that will results in higher or lower costs.
Utility-scale storage is optimised by charging during off-peak hours (when the grid is powered primarily by nuclear and hydro in Ontario and therefore low-emitting) and injecting energy back into the grid during peak hours.
The cost forecasts used in this module are updated from the values that were used in the IESO’s 2022 P2D study and are based on the 2023 NREL ATB report. NREL provides capital cost projections for wind generation and both utility-scale and distribution-scale installations of solar and storage.
The cost of BESS has fallen significantly over the past decade, with more precipitous drops in recent years: This is nearly a 70% reduction in three years, owing to falling battery pack prices (now as low as $60-70/kWh in China), increased deployment, and improved efficiency.
