BNEF's data shows that the global benchmark cost for a four-hour battery project fell 27% year-on-year to $78 per megawatt-hour (MWh) in 2025 – a record low since BNEF began tracking costs in 2009. . Figure ES-1 shows the suite of projected cost reductions (on a normalized basis) collected from the literature (shown in gray) as well as the low, mid, and high cost projections developed in this work (shown in black). In 2025, they are about $200–$400 per kWh. This is because of new lithium battery chemistries. Different places have different energy storage costs. In 2025, the global average price of a turnkey battery energy storage system (BESS) is US$117/kWh, according to the Energy Storage Systems Cost Survey 2025. . As of 2024–2025, BESS costs vary significantly across different technologies, applications, and regions: Lithium-ion (NMC/LFP) utility-scale systems: $0.
