Executive Summary In this work we describe the development of cost and performance projections for utility-scale lithium-ion battery systems, with a focus on 4-hour duration
As of most recent estimates, the cost of a BESS by MW is between $200,000 and $450,000, varying by location, system size, and market conditions.
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:
Electricity consumption per capita was 1 190 kWh in 2022. It remains much lower than in neighbouring countries (1 900 kWh in Jordan and 3 300 kWh in Turkey). In 2013, Iraq published its Integrated National Energy Strategy (INES) until 2030, which could represent US$620 bn in investments in the energy sector.
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.
In 2013, Iraq published its Integrated National Energy Strategy (INES) until 2030, which could represent US$620 bn in investments in the energy sector. Beside infrastructure development, the strategy noted the need for institutional reforms to foster private participation in the energy sector.
Oil is the country's main energy source, accounting for two thirds of total energy consumption. By 2027, the country plans to double its oil production to 8 mb/d and expand its export capacity by 50%. Saudi Arabia and Iraq will build a 1 GW transmission line by 2023-2024. Iraq's economy is mainly based on the oil industry.
