Introduction Battery energy storage systems have become the fastest-growing grid-scale energy technology in America, alongside solar generation. Currently, there is around 17 GWof commercially operational battery capacity by rated
This discrepancy highlights the challenges associated with financing and developing large-scale battery storage projects. There are low barriers to the early-stage development of battery sites.
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.
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.
fordability and Price ExpectationsAffordability remains a central objective of the Davis Administ ation’s energy reform programme. Historically, The Bahamas has had some of the highest electricity costs in the region, with consumers paying between $0.28 and $0.35 per kilowatt-hour, largely due to dependence on imported fuel
The suite of publications demonstrates wide variation in projected cost reductions for battery storage over time. Figure ES-1 shows the suite of projected cost reductions (on a normalized basis) collected from the literature (shown in gray) as well as the low, mid, and high cost projections developed in this work (shown in black).
