Energy Storage Pricing Survey & Energy Storage Financing Study Series The Energy Storage Pricing Survey series provides the energy storage industry with a standardized system cost benchmark for energy storage systems of a range of system power and energy ratings so customers can compare prices of different technologies at different system scales.
The survey methodology breaks down the cost of an energy storage system into the following categories: storage module, balance of system, power conversion system, energy management system, and the engineering, procurement, and construction costs.
The following are the definitions of the different segments of an energy storage system starting with the central energy storage component and working outwards. Storage Module (SM): An assembly of energy storage medium components (battery) built into a modular unit to construct the energy storage capacity (kWh) of an energy storage system.
The goal is to reduce barriers of entry, reduce transaction costs, and promote wider access to low cost capital in order to accelerate energy storage project development.
