The average energy capacity cost of utility-scale battery storage in the United States has rapidly decreased from $2,152 per kilowatthour (kWh) in 2015 to $625/kWh in 2018.
The average energy capacity cost of utility-scale battery storage in the United States has rapidly decreased from $2,152 per kilowatthour (kWh) in 2015 to $625/kWh in 2018. Battery storage systems store electricity produced by generators or pulled directly from the electric power grid and redistribute the power later as needed.
At the end of 2018, the United States had 869 megawatts (MW) of installed battery power capacity (the maximum amount of power a battery can provide at a given moment) and 1,236 megawatthours (MWh) of battery energy capacity (the total amount of energy that can be stored by a battery). Battery storage costs vary by region and application.
At the regional level, the 2013 to 2018 average utility-scale battery costs ranged from $1,946/kWh in the PJM Interconnection (PJM), which manages the electric power grid in 13 eastern and midwestern states and the District of Columbia, to as low as $947/kWh in Hawaii.
Lithium ion battery systems are projected to remain the lowest cost battery energy storage option in 2019 for a given site and utility use case. The costs of lithium ion batteries have decreased by roughly 80% since 2010 due to a number of factors.
Rapid change is underway in the energy storage sector. Prices for energy storage systems remain on a downward trajectory. The deployment of energy storage systems (ESSs) -- measured by capacity or energy -- continue to grow in the U.S., with a widening array of stationary power applications being successfully targeted.
Battery cost declines will be a function of continued manufacturing improvements, such as economies of scale and new manufacturing techniques; cell chemistry improvements, such as reduction in expensive raw materials (e.g., transitions to lower cobalt blends); engineering and design improvements; and efficiencies gained in supply chain management.
