This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Let's do some math:
2.1GWh
And
Multi billion dollar price (let's assume 3 billion)
2.1GWh - > 3billion
2.1MWh - > 3 millon
2.1kWh - > 3000 Usd /2.1
1KWh - > ~1430 USD
Considering that 1kWh in lithium ion batteries is like 150 USD they aren't getting a good value out of it.
Larger startup cost, but over the one power plant's lifetime the Li batteries would wear out and have to be replaced many times.
Don’t stick your thing in it!!
Remember Wally? Ooof. I mean, kind of a jerk and all but. What a way to go.
$1 per WH or almost that is pretty terrible. You can get battery systems for 1/4 of that $/WH at Home Depot.
Yeah, I agree that decentralization of the grid and self-consumption is better than these mass baseload solutions...but they will only get cheaper.
