Energy storage has the potential to transform the global economy by making power load management more efficient, by providing a reliable energy supply, by boosting economic growth in the developing world, and by helping to level the playing field for renewable energy sources and distributed power.
An economic analysis of energy storage systems should clearly articulate what components are included in the scope of cost. The major components of an energy storage system are batteries, power conversion system, transformer, switchgear, and monitoring and control. The schematic below shows these components.
Industrial energy storage systems, offering benefits such as enhanced power reliability, are crucial for bridging self-developed solar power facilities with the public grid, and require effective and secure integrated solutions.
The cost of energy storage, specifically lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS), has seen a rapid decline in the past decade. Costs have dropped 70% since 2012, and are forecasted to drop below the $200/kWh (€160/kWg) threshold by 2019.
The major result is that the perspectives of electricity storage systems from an economic viewpoint are highly dependent on the storage's operation time, the nature of the overall system, availability of other flexibility options, and sector coupling.
