For battery energy storage systems (BESS), the analysis was done for systems with rated power of 1, 10, and 100 megawatts (MW), with duration of 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 hours. For PSH, 100 and 1,000 MW systems at 4- and 10-hour durations were considered. For CAES, in addition to these power and duration levels, 10,000 MW was also considered.
Therefore, efforts to reduce cost of storage via engineering design are expected to gain traction. As long-duration energy storage (diurnal and seasonal) becomes more relevant, it is important to quantify cost for incremental storage in the cavern. The incremental cost for CAES storage is estimated to be $0.12/kWh.
Storage costs are overnight capital costs for a complete 4-hour battery system. Figure 9. Comparison of cost projections developed in this report (solid lines) against the values from the 2023 cost projection report (Cole and Karmakar 2023) (dashed lines). Figure 10.
Battery storage costs have evolved rapidly over the past several years, necessitating an update to storage cost projections used in long-term planning models and other activities. This work documents the development of these projections, which are based on recent publications of storage costs.
