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 from BloombergNEF (BNEF), published last week (10 December). That was a 31% decline from 2024 numbers. . According to BloombergNEF's Levelized Cost of Electricity 2026 report, the cost of battery storage projects plummeted to new lows in 2025 even as most other clean power technologies became more expensive. From ESS News While the pace of price decreases has slowed, lithium-ion battery packs have reached a new record. . In this work we describe the development of cost and performance projections for utility-scale lithium-ion battery systems, with a focus on 4-hour duration systems. The projections are developed from an analysis of recent publications that include utility-scale storage costs. Recent estimates show that the average global price of lithium-ion batteries will reach 112 U. EV battery prices dip below $100/kWh—explore the trends behind this decline.
