This broadly matches up with recent analysis by BloombergNEF which found that BESS costs have fallen 2% in the last six months, as well as anecdotal evidence of reductions after spikes in 2022. Compared to 2022, the national laboratory says the BESS costs will fall 47%, 32% and 16% by 2030 in its low, mid and high cost projections, respectively.
Neoen has achieved a key milestone in the development of its 200MW/400MWh Blyth grid-forming BESS in South Australia. Neoen''s project will cost in the region of AUS$337 million (US$227 million), with the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) set to provide AUS$17 million in funding support. Service Commission (PSC) has verified
Building upon the plan approved in its 2022 IRP, the company''s 2023 IRP Update seeks approval to deploy additional generation resources to reliably and economically support Georgia''s rapidly growing energy needs. These resources include expansion of renewable energy resources, battery energy storage systems (BESS), new and expanded
Current costs for utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) are based on a bottom-up cost model using the data and methodology for utility-scale BESS in (Feldman et al., 2021). The bottom-up BESS model accounts for major components, including the LIB pack, inverter, and the balance of system (BOS) needed for the installation.
In its previous IRP, filed in 2019, the utility had requested approval to build, own and operate 80MW of battery energy storage systems (BESS). The first 65MW/260MWh project in that portfolio got its PSC approval last year and Georgia Power contracted technology provider Wärtsilä for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) duties.
Moreover, BESS is often used for peak shaving – reducing power usage during peak demand times to lower energy costs. Additionally, BESS aids in load levelling, helping businesses smooth out energy consumption throughout the day, thus optimising energy usage and reducing strain on the grid. Wattstor achieves load levelling through its

Environmental Impact: The BESS projects are eligible for tax incentives under the Inflation Reduction Act, contributing to Georgia Power''s sustainability goals while lowering customer costs. In addition to these new initiatives, Georgia Power is progressing with its 65 MW Mossy Branch Battery Facility in Talbot County, set to be its first
This Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) helps to provide backup and reliability to ISO-NE while helping to cut costs and carbon for all customers. Georgia Ballard is a 5 MW, 2 hr., battery facility that interconnects to the Georgia Substation via the 12.47 kV distribution circuit. Georgia Ballard began commercial operation in Q2 of 2023.
The projects also benefit from the Inflation Reduction Act tax incentives, lowering development costs and customer tariffs. In parallel, Georgia Power continues progress on other storage projects, including the near-completion Mossy Branch Battery Facility (65 MW) and the McGrau Ford Phase I BESS project (265 MW), expected to be operational by
Georgia Power has identified locations for 500 MW of new battery energy storage systems (BESS) authorized by the Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC) earlier this year as part of the company''s
The Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC) has verified with Energy-Storage.news that it voted unanimously 3 December, to certify utility Georgia Power''s plans to build 500MW of battery energy storage systems (BESS) across four locations. A report by CSIRO has found that large-scale BESS capital costs have improved the most in 2024-25
To rid the use of fossil fuels and meet its decarbonizing energy goals, Georgia Power is adding Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to its clean energy portfolio. BESS creates more flexibility with energy usage from

BESS Cost Analysis: Breaking Down Costs Per kWh. To better understand BESS costs, it''s useful to look at the cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh) stored. As of recent data, the average cost of a BESS is approximately $400-$600 per kWh. Here''s a simple breakdown: Battery Cost per kWh: $300 - $400; BoS Cost per kWh: $50 - $150

The company is committed to delivering clean, safe, reliable and affordable energy for every customer, and works with the Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC) to ensure it can meet Georgia''s future energy needs.
The BESS resources will offer "energy arbitrage" benefits, as stated by Georgia Power, allowing the utility to shift energy output to maximise cost savings for customers. Georgia Power is also nearing completion of the 65MW Mossy Branch battery facility in Talbot County, which was approved in the 2019 IRP and will serve as the company''s
Petition of Georgia BESS, LLC for a Certificate of Public Good, pursuant to 30 V.S.A. §§ 231 and 248(j), authorizing the ownership, installation, Georgia BESS will file an updated cost estimate with the Commission and the Public Service Department based on actual cost quotes. If required

Other Georgia Power BESS projects underway include a 65 MW project in Talbot County (Mossy Branch) and a 13 MW project with the US Army at Fort Stewart near Savannah. Form Energy is an American technology company developing and commercializing a new class of cost-effective, multi-day energy storage systems.

The average 2024 price of a BESS 20-foot DC container in the US is expected to come down to US$148/kWh, down from US$180/kWh last year, a similar fall to that seen in 2023, as reported by Energy-Storage.news, when CEA launched a new quarterly BESS pricing monitor.
In February, Georgia Power installed its first BESS, the Mossy Branch Energy Facility, a 65 MW BESS on 2.5 acres of rural countryside in Talbot County, north of Columbus.
Projected Utility-Scale BESS Costs: Future cost projections for utility-scale BESS are based on a synthesis of cost projections for 4-hour duration systems as described by (Cole and Karmakar, 2023). The share of energy and power costs for batteries is assumed to be the same as that described in the Storage Futures Study (Augustine and Blair, 2021).
