According to a recent GTM Research report, the price of energy storage systems is expected to fall 8 percent annually through 2022. This means that the cost of energy storage will continue to decrease in the coming years.
In 2019, overall growth in the development of electrical energy storage projects slowed, as the industry entered a period of rational adjustment. As we enter 2020, how do those in the industry view and understand the future development path for energy storage?
2019 was a year of rapid development for the application of energy storage technology in the field of transportation. In the automotive field, we saw impressive expansion of NMG battery EVs, LiFePO battery EVs, PHEV models, and 48V hybrid models. Fuel cell passenger cars also provide much to look forward to.
However, the proper index for new investment in energy storage at the grid side is the cost of power supply per unit. Only when the relative history of this index does not increase will it be proven that investment in grid-side energy storage really holds value and can effectively reduce the cost of transmission and distribution.
By the end of 2019, energy storage projects with a cumulative size of more than 200MW had been put into operation in applications such as peak shaving and frequency regulation, renewable energy integration, generation-side thermal storage combined frequency regulation, and overseas energy storage markets.
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.
