It involves dividing all expenses (including capital expenditures and operation and maintenance costs throughout the system's lifetime N) by the amount of energy discharged by the storage system, Eout, over the same period. The capital cost and energy output are adjusted for the time value of money using the discount rate.
In this article, the investment cost of an energy storage system that can be put into commercial use is composed of the power component investment cost, energy storage media investment cost, EPC cost, and BOP cost. The cost of the investment is calculated by the following equation: (1) CAPEX = C P × Cap + C E × Cap × Dur + C EPC + C BOP
The system price provided is the total expected installed cost (capital plus EPC) of an energy storage system to a customer. Because the capital cost of these system will vary depending on the power (kW) and energy (kWh) rating of the system, a range of system prices has been provided for the reader.
Energy storage technologies are used at all levels of the power system. They are priced according to five different power ratings to provide a relevant system comparison and a more precise estimate.
