The cost of the BMS can account for about 5% to 10% of the total battery storage system cost. For a 2MW system, if we assume a BMS cost ratio of 8%, and the total system cost excluding the BMS is $800,000 (as calculated for the battery cost above), then the cost of the BMS would be $800,000 * 0.08 = $64,000.
In total, the cost of a 2MW battery storage system can range from approximately $1 million to $1.5 million or more, depending on the factors mentioned above. It is important to note that these are only rough estimates, and the actual cost can vary depending on the specific requirements and characteristics of each project.
