				    Capital cost of utility-scale battery storage systems in the New Policies Scenario, 2017-2040 - Chart and data by the International Energy Agency.
The complexity of grid connection requirements varies significantly based on location and local regulations, with costs ranging from €50,000 to €200,000 per MW of capacity. System integration expenses cover the sophisticated control systems, energy management software, and monitoring equipment essential for optimal battery performance.
Revenue Streams: The wholesale and ancillary service market (comprising over 5 revenue streams) is available to battery energy storage systems. Spain has approved plans to introduce a capacity market.
For a typical 100 MW/400 MWh utility-scale installation in Europe, hardware and equipment costs currently range from €40 to €60 million. However, these costs are expected to decrease by 8-10% annually as manufacturing efficiency improves and supply chains mature.
