For a broader market penetration of storage most important is their economic performance. As in principle many different storage options exist, for example, see Sterner/Stadler, 4 the first economic issue is simply the costs of different types of storage compared to each other to identify the most cost-effective storage option(see, …

Grid-scale battery costs can be measured in $/kW or $/kWh terms. Thinking in kW terms is more helpful for modelling grid resiliency. A good rule of thumb is that grid-scale lithium ion batteries will have 4-hours of storage duration, as this minimizes per kW costs and maximizes the revenue potential from power price arbitrage. Quantum …

For reference, an energy-efficient clothes dryer uses around 2 kWh of electricity per load, while central air conditioning uses around 3 kWh per hour. While price per watt is most helpful in comparing the relative costs of solar bids, solar energy cost per kWh is best used to illustrate the value of solar relative to buying your power from the electric utility.
