The regulator said the auction was highly competitive, leading to an average tender price of €47,680 ($51,506)/MW per year. Greece’s energy storage auction program awards contracts-for-difference (CfD) over periods of 10 years. The submitted bids were capped at €115,000/MW per year, with the lowest successful bid set at €44,100/MW per year.
**Battery Cost**: The battery is the core component of the energy storage system, and its cost accounts for a significant portion of the total cost. As of 2024, the cost of lithium-ion batteries, which are widely used in energy storage, has been declining. On average, the cost of lithium-ion battery cells can range from $0.3 to $0.5 per watt-hour.
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.
