Battery storage prices have gone down a lot since 2010. In 2025, they are about $200–$400 per kWh. This is because of new lithium battery chemistries. Different places have different energy storage costs. China’s average is $101 per kWh. The US average is $236 per kWh. Knowing the price of energy storage systems helps people plan for steady power.
Different places have different energy storage costs. China’s average is $101 per kWh. The US average is $236 per kWh. Knowing the price of energy storage systems helps people plan for steady power. It also helps them handle money risks. As prices drop and technology gets better, people need to know what causes these changes.
In 2025, they are about $200–$400 per kWh. This is because of new lithium battery chemistries. Different places have different energy storage costs. China’s average is $101 per kWh. The US average is $236 per kWh. Knowing the price of energy storage systems helps people plan for steady power. It also helps them handle money risks.
From 2022 to 2025, energy storage costs have gone down each year. In 2022, a home system cost about $1,000 per kWh. In 2023, the price dropped to $600 per kWh. By 2024, it was $400 per kWh for many systems. In 2025, most people pay between $200 and $400 per kWh.
The projections are developed from an analysis of recent publications that include utility-scale storage costs. The suite of publications demonstrates wide variation in projected cost reductions for battery storage over time.
Figure ES-2 shows the overall capital cost for a 4-hour battery system based on those projections, with storage costs of $245/kWh, $326/kWh, and $403/kWh in 2030 and $159/kWh, $226/kWh, and $348/kWh in 2050.
