Now, you can get an entire storage system in China. But again, even those spot markets in China getting to 35, sorry, the $50 per kilowatt-hour, it’s low in China. Some people can access that. That’s not a price that’s necessarily going to be reflected if you’re a stationary storage developer in Europe or the US.
In this episode, Shayle talks to James Frith, principal at the battery investment firm Volta Energy Technologies. He argues that there are multiple factors behind Chinese manufacturers’ efficiency and speed, like the know-how to operate plants with high yields, easy access to suppliers, and ability to squeeze margins to near zero.
And again, crazy numbers coming out of China in terms of stationary energy storage, costs, not just at the cell level but at the system level. At a system level for turnkey system, you’re looking at something like $135 per kilowatt-hour. So again, crazy low considering that 18 months ago the average price of a cell was about $135 per kilowatt-hour.
BloombergNEF put out a stat that I’ve heard cited like many times since then, a couple months ago that LFP battery cells in China on the spot market were selling for $53 a kilowatt-hour. Just truly bananas cheap relative to what you would’ve expected even just a couple of years ago.
And I plugged some numbers earlier into the model from BloombergNEF and looking the difference between the US and China. So for a LFP cell produced in China, 35 gigawatt hour facility, you’re looking at around $68 per kilowatt-hour.
