Inflation bites at the battery storage bonanza
Battery storage costs on the rise. Enormous demand for Li-ion batteries in IT devices and EVs has spurred enormous investment in technological innovation and large-scale manufacture. This helped to push prices from $1,200/kWh in 2010 to $132/kWh in 2021 – an 89% fall, according to BNEF. That trend has now gone into reverse.
