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.
Grid-scale energy storage, however, lacks the stringent power and weight constraints of electric vehicles, enabling a multitude of storage technologies to compete to provide current and emerging grid flexibility services.
Energy storage and its impact on the grid and transportation sectors have expanded globally in recent years as storage costs continue to fall and new opportunities are defined across a variety of industry sectors and applications.
Looking at 100 MW systems, at a 2-hour duration, gravity-based energy storage is estimated to be over $1,100/kWh but drops to approximately $200/kWh at 100 hours. Li-ion LFP offers the lowest installed cost ($/kWh) for battery systems across many of the power capacity and energy duration combinations.
While the higher volume of grid services also contributes to diluting the costs, the effect is generally minimal. Due to the constraint of battery capacity, power capacity increases beyond certain threshold cannot yield more grid services.
The Li-ion battery technology is mature and has been commercially deployed for grid-scale storage. Li-on battery systems have experienced sustained cost declines over the last few years resulting from a variety of drivers—component cost decline, system integration improvements, and deployment advancements.
