The decline in battery costs over the past decade leading up to 2021 helped reduce the cost of energy storage and adoption of BESS projects globally. While the prices
Market Overview Overview of the Battery Energy Storage Systems Market in France: In 2022, the France Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) Market attained a valuation of USD 293.03 million. Anticipated to exhibit strong growth in the projected period, it is expected to maintain a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.01% through 2028.
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-$600 per kWh. Here’s a simple breakdown:
Using the detailed NREL cost models for LIB, we develop base year costs for a 60-MW BESS with storage durations of 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 hours, shown in terms of energy capacity ($/kWh) and power capacity ($/kW) in Figures 1 and 2, A Goldman Sachs report from February 2024 indicates an average price of $115 per kWh for EV batteries.
It is nonetheless still eye-opening to note just how big those differences in cost are. The average for a turnkey system in China including 1-hour, 2-hour and 4-hour duration BESS was just US$101/kWh. In the US, the average was US$236/kWh and in Europe US$275/kWh, more than double China’s average cost.
Tax Incentives for Battery Storage Systems: The French government provides tax breaks for battery storage systems, mitigating the upfront expenses associated with such systems. This contributes to rendering them more accessible to businesses and homeowners.
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.
