In 2025, the typical cost of commercial lithium battery energy storage systems, including the battery, battery management system (BMS), inverter (PCS), and installation, ranges from $280 to $580 per kWh. Larger systems (100 kWh or more) can cost between $180 to $300 per kWh. How does battery chemistry affect the cost of energy storage systems?
In 2025, the typical cost of a commercial lithium battery energy storage system, which includes the battery, battery management system (BMS), inverter (PCS), and installation, is in the following range: $280 - $580 per kWh (installed cost), though of course this will vary from region to region depending on economic levels.
This study shows that battery electricity storage systems offer enormous deployment and cost-reduction potential. By 2030, total installed costs could fall between 50% and 60% (and battery cell costs by even more), driven by optimisation of manufacturing facilities, combined with better combinations and reduced use of materials.
The batteries, with their high energy density, are well-suited for large-scale energy storage applications, including grid energy storage and the storage of renewable energy .
