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.
In addition to costs for each technology for the power and energy levels listed, cost ranges were also estimated for 2020 and 2030. The dominant grid storage technology, PSH, has a projected cost estimate of $262/kWh for a 100 MW, 10-hour installed system. The most significant cost elements are the reservoir ($76/kWh) and powerhouse ($742/kW).
Informing the viable application of electricity storage technologies, including batteries and pumped hydro storage, with the latest data and analysis on costs and performance. Energy storage technologies, store energy either as electricity or heat/cold, so it can be used at a later time.
The total 2020 direct cost was $871/kW, while indirect costs added 21%, bringing the total to $1,052/kW. Adding $150/kW for substation and 5 miles of transmission brings the estimated 2020 cost to $1,202/kW. Table 14.
On an annualized cost basis (Figure ES-3), for 10-hour duration systems, CAES and PSH are projected to have the most cost-effective position for 2020 ($29/kWh and $36/kWh, respectively, for a 100 MW system).
The largest markets for stationary energy storage in 2030 are projected to be in North America (41.1 GWh), China (32.6 GWh), and Europe (31.2 GWh). Excluding China, Japan (2.3 GWh) and South Korea (1.2 GWh) comprise a large part of the rest of the Asian market.
