Battery storage costs have changed rapidly over the past decade. In 2016, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) published a set of cost projections for utility-scale lithium-ion batteries (Cole et al. 2016). Those 2016 projections relied heavily on electric vehicle
Statistics show the cost of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (li-ion BESS) reduced by around 80% over the recent decade. As of early 2024, the levelized cost of storage (LCOS) of li-ion BESS declined to RMB 0.3-0.4/kWh, even close to RMB 0.2/kWh for some li-ion BESS projects. With industry competition heating up, cost reduction
ERCOT has confirmed the important role energy storage plays in maintaining reliability at critical moments in a cost-efficient manner. "Energy storage is doing the job it was designed to do, "During this time of growing demand, we''ve seen a rapid deployment of battery storage capacity across the state, increasing 5X from 2022 to 2024
Romania''s Ministry of Energy has reached two additional milestones under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan related to battery storage capacities and PV panel production.
As of April 2024, the Monsson battery energy storage system in Constanța County is the largest of its kind in Romania. With an installed capacity of 24 MWh – (6MW x 4h), the facility was built and inaugurated on April 2024 by Monsson.. Monsson is a company under the Monsson Group, that has been developing and owning renewable energy projects since

This study investigated the feasibility of energy storage technologies that are commercially available on the Romanian market by using the levelized cost of storage (LCOS) method. The proposed approach also considers subsidies and different battery energy storage system’ (BESS) technical parameters.
As the price for every kWh injected into the network and battery energy storage system (BESS) costs are dynamic, the household and industrial consumers who want to integrate a battery in their PV system may have difficulties choosing between the commercially batteries available on the Romanian market.
The analysis presents the commercially available batteries on Romanian market, the technical performances of each battery, the costs involved in this decision, the opportunity to reduce their investment and indicates the most profitable battery obtained after LCOS method is performed.
In response to EU Regulation 2019/943, which clarifies the role of storage and its ownership status, the Romanian authorities transposed in Law 155/2020 (amending Energy Law 123/2012) specific provisions related to new storage facilities and their management rules.
Profitability evaluation for 5 types of battery technologies in Romania. BESSs costs were obtained from Romanian market analysis. LCB technologies are the most feasible from the examined BESSs. A sensitivity analysis with respect to cost parameters is presented. The variation of capital expenditure has the highest influence on LCOS values.
