Grid-Scale Battery Storage: Costs, Value, and Regulatory Framework in India Webinar jointly hosted by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Prayas Energy Group
$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. A
BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) is a technology that stores electrical energy in batteries and releases it when needed. It is widely used in power grids, commercial and industrial facilities, and even homes to improve energy
When evaluating battery energy storage system (BESS) prices per MWh, think of it like buying a high-performance electric vehicle – the battery pack is just the starting point.

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.
Factoring in these costs from the beginning ensures there are no unexpected expenses when the battery reaches the end of its useful life. To better understand BESS costs, it’s useful to look at the cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh) stored. As of recent data, the average cost of a BESS is approximately $400-$600 per kWh. Here’s a simple breakdown:
How containerised BESS costs change over time. Grid connection costs. Balance of Plant (BOP) costs. Operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. And the time taken for projects to progress from construction to commercial operations. Other variables add costs to projects.
Several factors can influence the cost of a BESS, including: Larger systems cost more, but they often provide better value per kWh due to economies of scale. For instance, utility-scale projects benefit from bulk purchasing and reduced per-unit costs compared to residential installations. Costs can vary depending on where the system is installed.
