All-in BESS projects now cost just $125/kWh as of October 2025 2. With a $65/MWh LCOS, shifting half of daily solar generation overnight adds just $33/MWh to the cost of solar. Ember provides the latest capex and Levelised Cost of Storage (LCOS) for large, long-duration utility-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) across global markets outside China and the US, based on recent auction results and expert interviews. Factors driving the decline include cell manufacturing overcapacity, economies of scale, low metal and component prices, adoption of lower-cost lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP). . In the US, BNEF's expectations cooled as higher tariffs on imports are driving up battery prices and slowing build. As we move further into 2025, the economics of storing power have become more favorable, driven by technological advancements and manufacturing. . China has officially announced the procurement of sodium-ion batteries, setting a price ceiling at $150/kWh. This exciting development comes alongside the construction of a groundbreaking energy storage project in the suburban district of Fengxian, south of Shanghai.
