PVMars lists the costs of 1mwh-3mwh energy storage system (ESS) with solar here (lithium battery design). The price unit is each watt/hour, total price is calculated as: 0.2 US$ * 2000,000 Wh = 400,000 US$. When solar modules
Scalability: The scalability of sodium-ion battery production promises substantial economies of scale. As production ramps up, the per-unit cost of batteries is expected to decrease, making them an even more attractive option for large-scale energy storage and electric vehicles.
Assuming a similar capex cost to Li-ion-based battery energy storage systems (BESS) at $300/kWh, sodium-ion batteries’ 57% improvement rate will see them increasingly more affordable than Li-ion cells, reaching around $10/kWh by 2028.
With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future of long-duration energy storage, finds AI-based analysis that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data. Sodium-ion batteries’ rapid development could see long-duration energy storage (LDES) enter mainstream use as early as 2027.
The average cost for sodium-ion cells in 2024 is $87 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), marginally cheaper than lithium-ion cells at $89/kWh.
Although the companies are yet to commercialise their technologies, Chinese battery company Great Power last year announced a 50MW/100 megawatt-hour LDES project to power a data centre, demonstrating that sodium-ion batteries are already under consideration for LDES. “China will probably lead the way for sodium-ion battery production,” adds Gorski.
Sodium-ion batteries are not only improving at a faster rate than other LDES technologies but they are also set to be cost comparable with the cheapest forms of dispatchable power, and therefore enter mainstream use, as early as 2027.
