The model may integrate more data about energy storage system operation as they have an impact the system lifetime. This will have an influence on the financial outcomes. The existing financial model may be enhanced by adding new EES technical details. There are various valuation methods for energy storage.
Base year costs for utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are based on a bottom-up cost model using the data and methodology for utility-scale BESS in (Ramasamy et al., 2023). The bottom-up BESS model accounts for major components, including the LIB pack, the inverter, and the balance of system (BOS) needed for the installation.
Pumped-hydro energy storage (PHES) plants with capacities ranging from several MW to GW and reasonably high power efficiencies of over 80% [ 4, 5] are well-established long-term energy storage systems. Compressed air energy storage is another widely established large-scale EES alternative (CAES).
Energy storage technologies are also the key to lowering energy costs and integrating more renewable power into our grids, fast. If we can get this right, we can hold on to ever-rising quantities of renewable energy we are already harnessing – from our skies, our seas, and the earth itself. The gap to fill is very wide indeed.
Financial and economic modeling are undertaken based on the data and assumptions presented in Table 1. Table 1. Project stakeholder interests in KPIs. To determine the economic feasibility of the energy storage project, the model outputs two types of KPIs: economic and financial KPIs.
