How containerised BESS costs change over time. Grid connection costs. Balance of Plant (BOP) costs. Operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. And the time taken for projects to progress from construction to commercial operations. Other variables add costs to projects.
According to a report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the future of cost development for BESS is promising. As deployment of renewable energy sources increase, the demand for energy storage will increase and offer new economic opportunities (Ralon, et al., 2017).
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.
A system with VFB technology is projected to decrease in capital costs by approximately 66 %. This reduction of capital costs will increase the competitiveness of BESS in relation to more traditional storage systems (Ralon, et al., 2017). A lot of investments have been made in lithium-ion batteries due to its wide range of possible applications.
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:
The underlying assumptions for this projection are based on a reduction of capex and discount rate, and an increase in efficiency. The reduction of capex is based on IRENA’s (2017) projections for cost reduction on capital costs for systems with li-ion, lead-acid and VFB technologies.
