The programme is broken into four projects with a capacity of 100mw/400mwh each and includes the design, installation and operation of BESS at various sites in Peninsular Malaysia. Each project must start operations by 2026 and is expected to have commercial operations spanning over a period of 15 years.
The cost of BESS has fallen significantly over the past decade, with more precipitous drops in recent years: This is nearly a 70% reduction in three years, owing to falling battery pack prices (now as low as $60-70/kWh in China), increased deployment, and improved efficiency.
Peninsular Malaysia’s rising solar penetration, currently over 2.5 GW, has increased the urgency to deploy storage as a flexible grid asset. By launching this BESS auction ahead of major stability issues, Malaysia is taking a proactive step to future-proof its power system, with COD targeted for 2026.
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:
