Contact UsOur base case for Compressed Air Energy Storage costs require a 26c/kWh storage spread to generate a 10% IRR at a $1,350/kW CAES facility, with 63% round-trip efficiency, charging and discharging 365 days per year.
Cost data for most technology groups came from projects deployed globally between 2018 and 2024. At $232/kWh, thermal energy storage was the cheapest technology group, followed by compressed air storage. At $643/kWh, gravity storage had the highest average global capex cost, BNEF said.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzed energy storage systems from 2 to 10 hours. The 2022 Cost and Performance Assessment analyzes storage system at additional 24- and 100-hour durations.
What opportunities? Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) seeks to smooth out power grids, using excess electricity to compress air into storage tanks or underground reservoirs at high pressures (e.g., 40-80 bar). The energy needed to compress air to different temperatures is plotted below.
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy storage, and hydrogen energy storage.
At $643/kWh, gravity storage had the highest average global capex cost, BNEF said. In non-China markets, installed LDES system costs were 54% higher for thermal energy storage, 66% higher for flow batteries and 68% higher for compressed air storage, BNEF said.
