O&M costs are typically lower for lithium-ion systems due to fewer moving parts, but they should still be factored into your long-term budget. Modern BESS solutions often include sophisticated software that helps manage energy storage, optimize usage, and extend battery life.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are becoming essential in the shift towards renewable energy, providing solutions for grid stability, energy management, and power quality. However, understanding the costs associated with BESS is critical for anyone considering this technology, whether for a home, business, or utility scale.
Lithium-ion batteries are the most popular due to their high energy density, efficiency, and long life cycle. However, they are also more expensive than other types. Prices have been falling, with lithium-ion costs dropping by about 85% in the last decade, but they still represent the largest single expense in a BESS.
As mentioned, lithium-ion batteries are popular but more expensive. Newer technologies like solid-state batteries promise higher performance at potentially lower costs in the future, but they are still in the developmental stage. Government incentives, rebates, and tax credits can significantly reduce BESS costs.
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.
