In the white paper "Empowering Europe''s Energy Future: Navigating the Lifecycle of Battery Energy Storage System Deals", experts of PwC and Strategy&, the strategy consultancy of PwC, shed light on the entire life cycle of a BESS deal in Europe – from market analysis and site selection to revenue generation and long-term optimization.
Various end-of-life (EOL) options are under development, such as recycling and recovery. Recently, stakeholders have become more confident that giving the retired batteries a second life by reusing them in less-demanding applications, such as stationary energy storage, may create new value pools in the energy and transportation sectors.
The suite of publications demonstrates wide variation in projected cost reductions for battery storage over time. 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).
The primary drivers of the cost of refurbishing batteries are (1) the logistics involved in their collection, (2) the testing of remaining useful life, and (3) the physical break-up and repacking of cells, modules, and packs.
Automating the disassembly and inspection steps has the consensus of the industry for both recycling and reusing retired EV batteries, whereas reusing, to some extent, requires a more-sophisticated procedure because the procedure has to be nondestructive.
The replacement program for certain energy storage products manufactured between April 2017 and September 2018 could cost around $350 million at LG Energy Solution's own cost. They will replace the lithium-ion battery cells.
The battery about 189 kWh energy can be reused, the remaining about 20 kWh energy of the battery has been damaged or cannot be matched, making them unable to be reused. The secondary utilization rate of the battery is about 90.4%.

Determining the levelized second-life cost of degraded battery modules and packs for various applications, including second-hand BEVs and stationary storage installations. Developing cost-effective module- and pack-level rejuvenation methods to repair battery damage
In Fig. 2 it is noted that pumped storage is the most dominant technology used accounting for about 90.3% of the storage capacity, followed by EES. By the end of 2020, the cumulative installed capacity of EES had reached 14.2 GW. The lithium-iron battery accounts for 92% of EES, followed by NaS battery at 3.6%, lead battery which accounts for about 3.5%, …
In fact, the size and weight of batteries that you''d need to power large aircraft is one the biggest barriers to a transition to electrified aviation. 7 The same is true for shipping or trucks: bigger and heavier batteries just make everything more costly in energy terms. 8 You need lots of large batteries, which take up space and add weight to carry around.

In this paper, we dismantle lithium-ion batteries that retired from EVs and calculate their acquisition cost, dismantling cost and final reuse cost based on actual analysis of the grid with photovoltaic (PV) and load, and …
Goldman Sachs recently reported that by 2026, battery prices should reach $80/kWh, which is roughly 50% the 2023 price. Let that sink in for a moment: the cost has dropped by almost half in 3 years. This is great news for EV affordability, as well as many other energy and technology projects that rely on lithium ion batteries.
