Booming battery storage pipeline heralds renewables era
Just a few years ago, grid-scale battery storage was widely deemed too expensive to ever be rolled out at significant scale. However, the price of electrochemical battery storage has plummeted, from $1,200 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery storage in 2010 to $151 in 2022, according to research company BloombergNEF (BNEF).
