Iran, September 2022: The price of electricity is 0.005 U.S. Dollar per kWh for households and 0.000 U.S. Dollar for businesses which includes all components of the electricity bill such as the cost of power, distribution and taxes.
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:
Energy consumption has stabilised since 2018 and stood at274 Mtoe in 2021. It grew by +3.7%/year between 2010 and 2018. Iran aims to develop its hydrocarbon resources, particularly its gas exports, which have been slowed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, on top of the renewed US sanctions and increased geopolitical tensions.
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.
The Ministry of Energy is in charge of the electricity sector and oversees the energy efficiency and renewables policy. Tavanir (Iran Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution Management Company) is the vertically integrated national electricity company and controls 16 regional electricity companies.
