BNEF’s latest report finds that a complete battery pack costs $137/kWh in 2020, will fall to $101/kWh in 2023, and reach $58/kWh in 2030. In comparison, the Draft Document contains older estimates showing battery pack prices of $143/kWh in 2020, $112/kWh in 2023, and $70/kWh in 2030.
There are two main drivers. One is technological innovation. We're seeing multiple new battery products that have been launched that feature about 30% higher energy density and lower cost. The second driver is a continued downturn in battery metal prices. That includes lithium and cobalt, and nearly 60% of the cost of batteries is from metals.
Battery prices are generally predicted to decline as production methods improve Potential customers of Britishvolt were quoted prices of up to a third higher than competitors as the company prepares to battle cheaper Chinese rivals.
Battery pack prices are now expected to fall by an average of 11% per year from 2023 to 2030, writes Nikhil Bhandari, co-head of Goldman Sachs Research’s Asia-Pacific Natural Resources and Clean Energy Research, in the team’s report.
That includes lithium and cobalt, and nearly 60% of the cost of batteries is from metals. When we talk about the battery from, let's say, 2023 to all the way to 2030, roughly over 40% of the decline is just coming from lower commodity costs, because we had a lot of green inflation during 2020 to 2023.
Goldman Sachs Research now expects battery prices to fall to $99 per kilowatt hour (kWh) of storage capacity by 2025 — a 40% decrease from 2022 (the previous forecast was for a 33% decline). Our analysts estimate that almost half of the decline will come from declining prices of EV raw materials such as lithium, nickel, and cobalt.
