Their model considers the present and future competitivity of industrial flow batteries in operating specific services, which have not yet been developed to an accurate grade, and yields economic performance indicators such as capital costs, operative costs, levelized cost of storage (LCOS), and net present value.
Around 92 GW of new PV... Researchers in Italy have estimated the profitability of future vanadium redox flow batteries based on real device and market parameters and found that market evolutions are heading to much more competitive systems, with capital costs down to €260/kWh at a storage duration of 10 hours.
“This is to be compared with a break-even point in the net present value of 400€ kWh, which suggests that flow batteries may play a major role in some expanding markets, notably the long duration energy storage,” the researchers stated.
The capacity market is well-suited to industrialised northern Italy with its developed infrastructure and higher industrial demand for power. While it offers 15-year contracts like MACSE, investors can stack their capacity payments (payments are then available when needed) on top of what they earn from selling energy in the wholesale market.
