Bulgaria has taken a major step forward in its renewable energy strategy with the inauguration of a 124 MW / 496.2 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the north-central city of Lovech.
High and further increasing volatility of power prices due to the expansion of renewables on the one hand and significantly decreasing prices for battery cells in recent years
6 天之前· The majority of the increase was driven by the increase in the cost of the batteries themselves. That portion of the overall system cost has increased by 33.3% from 36,000 yen/kWh to 48,000 yen/kWh due to the weaker yen and

It is nonetheless still eye-opening to note just how big those differences in cost are. The average for a turnkey system in China including 1-hour, 2-hour and 4-hour duration BESS was just US$101/kWh. In the US, the average was US$236/kWh and in Europe US$275/kWh, more than double China’s average cost.
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.
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:
Downstream, as reported by Energy-Storage.news, recent tenders in China have been held in which winning bids for BESS projects as low as US$66/kWh were entered, which Kikuma says were in broadly in line with BNEF’s numbers.
