State-owned utility and power generator Eesti Energia has completed and put into commercial operation the first large-scale BESS in Estonia.
Increased competition in the commercial ESS space Government incentives (e.g., tax credits in the U.S. and Europe) make systems more affordable. For example, in 2022, a 100 kWh system could cost $45,000. By 2025, similar systems could sell for less than $30,000, depending on configuration.
Let's analyze the numbers, the factors influencing them, and why now is the best time to invest in energy storage. $280 - $580 per kWh (installed cost), though of course this will vary from region to region depending on economic levels. For large containerized systems (e.g., 100 kWh or more), the cost can drop to $180 - $300 per kWh.
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.
