How much does a battery cost in 2023?

The figures represent an average across multiple battery end-uses, including different types of electric vehicles, buses and stationary storage projects. For battery electric vehicle (BEV) packs, prices were $128/kWh on a volume-weighted average basis in 2023. At the cell level, average prices for BEVs were just $89/kWh.

How much does a battery electric vehicle cost in 2023?

For battery electric vehicle (BEV) packs, prices were $128/kWh on a volume-weighted average basis in 2023. At the cell level, average prices for BEVs were just $89/kWh. This indicates that on average, cells account for 78% of the total pack price. Over the last four years, the cell-to-pack cost ratio has risen from the traditional 70:30 split.

What are the different types of rechargeable batteries?

Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NCM) are two types of rechargeable batteries commonly used in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. Average price of battery cells per kilowatt-hour in US dollars, not adjusted for inflation.

How much does lithium iron phosphate cost?

The industry continues to switch to the low-cost cathode chemistry known as lithium iron phosphate (LFP). These packs and cells had the lowest global weighted-average prices, at $130/kWh and $95/kWh, respectively. This is the first year that BNEF’s analysis found LFP average cell prices falling below $100/kWh.

How much does a battery cost in China?

On a regional basis, average battery pack prices were lowest in China, at $94/kWh, while packs in the US and Europe were 31% and 48% higher, and this gap has grown on previous years in light of ‘fierce competition in China’. The same trend has been noted for battery energy storage systems (BESS)

Will Lithium prices remain high in 2022?

Lithium prices reached a high point at the end of 2022, but fears that prices would remain high have largely subsided since then and prices are now falling again. Evelina Stoikou, energy storage senior associate at BNEF and lead author of the report, said: “It is another year where battery prices closely followed raw material prices.
