Compared to 2022, the national laboratory says the BESS costs will fall 47%, 32% and 16% by 2030 in its low, mid and high cost projections, respectively. By 2050, the
This broadly matches up with recent analysis by BloombergNEF which found that BESS costs have fallen 2% in the last six months, as well as anecdotal evidence of reductions after spikes in 2022. Compared to 2022, the national laboratory says the BESS costs will fall 47%, 32% and 16% by 2030 in its low, mid and high cost projections, respectively.
The most important takeaway is that the NREL estimates that BESS costs will start to fall this year in its ‘low’ and ‘mid’ cost projections, with an increase over the next few years forecast in its ‘high’ scenario, visualised in the graph above.
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:
A big driver of the fall in BESS costs will be a decline in the costs of the battery cells and packs themselves, which can make up half the cost of a lithium-ion BESS.
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.
