What is the investment cost of an energy storage system?

The investment cost of an energy storage system primarily refers to its initial investment cost. Although energy storage systems differ greatly due to their different principles and forms, it is still possible to distinguish the devices involved in an energy storage system by power components and energy storage media.

Which energy storage technology has the best economic performance?

When the storage duration is 1 day, thermal energy storage exhibits the best economic performance among all energy storage technologies, with a cost of <0.4 CNY/kWh. Even with increased storage durations, the economic performance of TES and CAES remains considerable. Fig. 8. Economic performance under the day-level energy storage scenario.
