Lithium-ion battery pack prices remain elevated, averaging $152/kWh. In 2022, volume-weighted price of lithium-ion battery packs across all sectors averaged $151 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), a 7% rise from 2021 and the first time BNEF recorded an increase in price.

Will battery pack prices drop again next year?

Given this, BNEF expects average battery pack prices to drop again next year, reaching $133/kWh (in real 2023 dollars). Technological innovation and manufacturing improvement should drive further declines in battery pack prices in the coming years, to $113/kWh in 2025 and $80/kWh in 2030.

How big will battery storage be in 2021?

Globally in 2021, the grid had 30 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of battery storage installed. We expect that number to grow to 400 GWh by 2030. This has many implications for utilities, battery storage investors, and large commercial energy users: Utilities will see an increase in battery installations in their territories.

How does the price of a battery change over the next decade?

Growth in the battery industry is a function of price. As the scale of production increases, prices come down. Figure 1 forecasts the decrease in price of an automotive cell over the next decade. The price per kWh moved from $132 per kWh in 2018 to a high of $161 in 2021. But from 2022 to 2030 the price will decline to an estimated $80 per kWh.
