The average 2024 price of a BESS 20-foot DC container in the US is expected to come down to US$148/kWh, down from US$180/kWh last year, a similar fall to that seen in 2023, as reported by Energy-Storage.news, when CEA launched
On average, the cost of lithium-ion batteries for large-scale storage applications can range from $100 to $300 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of capacity. For a 50MW/50MWh system
But what will the real cost of commercial energy storage systems (ESS) be in 2025? Let''s analyze the numbers, the factors influencing them, and why now is the best time to invest in energy storage.
Utility-scale Solar PV Projects A ''utility-scale'' solar project is usually defined as such if it produces 10 megawatts (MW) or more of energy. For comparison, the average American household uses approximately 900 kWh (0.9 MWh) per
With fluctuating energy prices and the growing urgency of sustainability goals, commercial battery energy storage has become an increasingly attractive energy storage solution for businesses. But what will the
Our MMP benchmark for a 100-MWdc utility-scale system with one-axis tracking and a 60-MW/240 MWh ESS ($2.11/Wdc) is 28% higher than our MSP benchmark ($1.65/Wdc) and

How much does it cost to build a battery in 2024? Modo Energy''s industry survey reveals key Capex, O&M, and connection cost benchmarks for BESS projects.
Here and throughout this presentation, unless otherwise indicated, analysis assumes a capital structure consisting of 20% debt at an 8% interest rate and 80% equity at a 12% cost of equity.
Increased competition in the commercial ESS space Government incentives (e.g., tax credits in the U.S. and Europe) make systems more affordable. For example, in 2022, a 100 kWh system could cost $45,000. By 2025, similar systems could sell for less than $30,000, depending on configuration.
MWh (Megawatt-hour) is a measure of energy capacity (how long the system can continue delivering that power output). For example, a 1 MW / 4 MWh BESS has four hours of storage capacity.So, while the system might be $200,000 per MW, the effective cost can be $800,000 per MWh if it has four hours duration.
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:
Kikuma says that one interesting trend the survey identified in the next two biggest regions after China was that while systems were cheaper in Europe in 2023, last year, the US overtook—or indeed undercut—European prices for 2-hour and 4-hour turnkey systems.
Residential prices increased by 23% to €2.38/kWh. Previously, prices had been generally decreasing between 2013 and 2021, except for in 2019 when they increased by 30% for industry and 10% for households. Total consumption per capita is around 1.8 toe (2023) (of which, around 3 300 kWh of electricity) compared to about 2.8 toe for the EU.
For example, in 2022, a 100 kWh system could cost $45,000. By 2025, similar systems could sell for less than $30,000, depending on configuration. Why invest now?
