Small-scale lithium-ion residential battery systems in the German market suggest that between 2014 and 2020, battery energy storage systems (BESS) prices fell by 71%, to USD 776/kWh.
Remarkably, this share surged to 77% in 2023, indicating a significant upward trajectory of the trend toward combining PV residential rooftop systems with battery storage in Germany. To date, most battery storage systems in the German electricity system have been used exclusively to optimize self-consumption.
The landscape of utility-scale battery storage costs in Europe continues to evolve rapidly, driven by technological advancements and increasing demand for renewable energy integration. As we’ve explored, the current costs range from €250 to €400 per kWh, with a clear downward trajectory expected in the coming years.
Battery Storage Boom: 1.2 Million Systems Installed Notably, battery storage systems, also essential for Germany’s renewable energy transition, constitute a significant component of this ecosystem, with 1.2 million installed systems.
The largest component of utility-scale battery storage costs lies in the battery cells themselves, typically accounting for 30-40% of total system costs. In the European market, lithium-ion batteries currently range from €200 to €300 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), with prices continuing to decrease as manufacturing scales up and technology improves.
To date, most battery storage systems in the German electricity system have been used exclusively to optimize self-consumption. Consequently, an exponentially growing number of homeowners and companies store solar power for times when solar generation is low.
