In general, the initial cost of an energy storage power station mainly includes the investment cost of the energy storage unit, power conversion unit, and other investment costs such as labor and service costs for initial installation. The specific calculations of these three parts used the formulas in Appendix 2 of literature [ 29 ].
For different types of energy storage, the initial investment varies greatly. At present, the investment cost of a pumped storage power station is about 878–937 million USD/GW, which is far higher than that of a battery storage power station, and is closely related to location.
In this paper, the cost of energy storage is divided into three categories, namely the investment cost, the operating cost in the markets, and other costs. The remaining parts of this section elaborate on these three kinds of costs, respectively, and the benefits model is introduced in the next section.
In the energy market, energy storage stations gain profits through peak-valley arbitrage. That is, the energy storage system stores electricity during low electricity price periods and discharges it during high electricity price periods.
At present, the investment cost of a pumped storage power station is about 878–937 million USD/GW, which is far higher than that of a battery storage power station, and is closely related to location. For battery energy storage, the initial cost mainly depends on different materials.
However, no matter how the energy storage power station participates in the electricity market, the IRR of both power stations does not exceed 10%. This means that there is always a risk of loss in the investment of energy storage power stations.
