In this article, the investment cost of an energy storage system that can be put into commercial use is composed of the power component investment cost, energy storage media investment cost, EPC cost, and BOP cost. The cost of the investment is calculated by the following equation: (1) CAPEX = C P × Cap + C E × Cap × Dur + C EPC + C BOP
The benchmarks in this report are bottom-up cost estimates of all major inputs to PV and energy storage system (ESS) installations. Bottom-up costs are based on national averages and do not necessarily represent typical costs in all local 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.
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s 2020 Grid Energy Storage Technologies Cost and Performance Assessment provides a range of cost estimates for technologies in 2020 and 2030 as well as a framework to help break down different cost categories of energy storage systems.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzed energy storage systems from 2 to 10 hours. The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzes storage system at additional 24- and 100-hour durations.
It involves dividing all expenses (including capital expenditures and operation and maintenance costs throughout the system's lifetime N) by the amount of energy discharged by the storage system, Eout, over the same period. The capital cost and energy output are adjusted for the time value of money using the discount rate.
Future of Energy Storage
According to David Post, EASE President and Head of Global Integrated BD at Enel X, Europe''s investment in energy storage will only go up in the following years: "We''re witnessing unprecedented levels of investment, with countries betting big on energy storage as a key enabler of the energy transition," he said. "As costs continue to decline, the potential for …
