The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment provides the levelized cost of storage (LCOS). The two metrics determine the average price that a unit of energy output would need to be sold at to cover all project costs inclusive of taxes, financing, operations and maintenance, and others.

Abstract: In response to the growing demand for sustainable and efficient energy management, this paper introduces an innovative approach aimed at enhancing grid-connected multi
In the past decade, the implementation of battery energy storage systems (BESS) with a modular design has grown significantly, proving to be highly advantageous for large-scale grid-tied applications.
Large-scale grid-connection of photovoltaic (PV) without active support capability will lead to a significant decrease in system inertia and damping capacity (Zeng et al., 2020).For example,
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.
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.
There exist a number of cost comparison sources for energy storage technologies For example, work performed for Pacific Northwest National Laboratory provides cost and performance characteristics for several different battery energy storage (BES) technologies (Mongird et al. 2019).
The cost estimates provided in the report are not intended to be exact numbers but reflect a representative cost based on ranges provided by various sources for the examined technologies. The analysis was done for energy storage systems (ESSs) across various power levels and energy-to-power ratios.
Grid integration including transformers, meters, safety disconnects, and nominal labor costs added at $19.89/kW, same as for 100 MW lithium-ion battery system. Table 35 shows input values for capital cost obtained from Hunter et al. (In Press) for a 100 MW, 120-hour HESS.
The cost categories used in the report extend across all energy storage technologies to allow ease of data comparison. Direct costs correspond to equipment capital and installation, while indirect costs include EPC fee and project development, which include permitting, preliminary engineering design, and the owner’s engineer and financing costs.
