				    The battery storage technologies do not calculate levelized cost of energy (LCOE) or levelized cost of storage (LCOS) and so do not use financial assumptions. Therefore, all parameters are the same for the research and development
				    Whether you''re customizing solar panels for your roof space, exploring battery storage, or making a full-blown overhaul of your energy strategy, the price tag depends on everything from system size to location.
				    Consider an 80 kW and an 800 KW microgrid, both directing similar configurations: a solar array, two gas-fired generators and energy storage. The control system for the smaller microgrid will likely cost less in real dollars
In commercial/industrial and utility microgrids, soft costs (43% and 24%, respectively) represent significant portion of the total costs per megawatt. Finally, energy storage contributes significantly to the total cost of commercial and community microgrids, which have percentages of 25% and 15%, respectively, of the total costs per megawatt.
Or as S&C Electric’s David Chiesa puts it: “If you’ve seen one microgrid you’ve seen one microgrid.” So there is no quick and simple price to give a prospective customer. Sources we’ve interviewed cite project proposals as low as $250,000 to as high as $100 million. Generation typically accounts for most of the cost.
True, larger microgrids will likely be more expensive than smaller microgrids — but in gross terms, not necessarily on a per kilowatt basis. In fact, generation for a very small microgrid tends to cost more per kilowatt than a comparable larger version. For example, a 50-kW solar array is more expensive per kilowatt than 1-MW solar array.
Hitachi has a found a financial sweet spot for microgrids sized between 1.5 MW and 40 MW that include CHP, solar photovoltaics and energy storage. The best savings typically accrue in areas of the country where utility costs are high – which explains in part the large amount of microgrid activity in the Northeast.
The highest microgrid in operation now is a Level 5. An example is the Oncor microgrid that S&C Electric helped build with a team of several other companies. The highest microgrid in planning is a Level 6, which opens the door to a grid of microgrids, where microgrids can interact with each other and share resources.
Microgrids don’t have to be built all at once, but can be expanded and improved in phases, with additional sophistication and capabilities layered in over time. By taking this approach, customers can invest gradually, gaining confidence as the microgrid proves its business case.
