Informing the viable application of electricity storage technologies, including batteries and pumped hydro storage, with the latest data and analysis on costs and performance. Energy storage technologies, store energy either as electricity or heat/cold, so it can be used at a later time.
Through a comparative analysis of different energy storage technologies in various time scale scenarios, we identify diverse economically viable options. Sensitivity analysis reveals the possible impact on economic performance under conditions of near-future technological progress.
Here, we construct experience curves to project future prices for 11 electrical energy storage technologies. We find that, regardless of technology, capital costs are on a trajectory towards US$340 ± 60 kWh −1 for installed stationary systems and US$175 ± 25 kWh −1 for battery packs once 1 TWh of capacity is installed for each technology.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
They are priced according to five different power ratings to provide a relevant system comparison and a more precise estimate. The power rating of an energy storage system impacts system pricing, where larger systems are typically lower in cost (on a $/kWh basis) than smaller ones due to volume purchasing, etc.
A comprehensive understanding of energy storage costs is essential for effectively navigating the rapidly evolving energy landscape. This landscape is shaped by technologies such as lithium-ion batteries and large-scale energy storage solutions, along with projections for battery pricing and pack prices.
