On average, installation costs can account for 10-20% of the total expense. Unlike traditional generators, BESS generally requires less maintenance, but it''s not maintenance
While overall energy storage system costs dropped to ¥0.445/Wh for 4-hour systems, fire safety components maintained stable pricing due to increased safety regulations.
In China, it happened for the first time in 2024, according to BNEF, with a 4-hour duration turnkey system costing US$85/kWh on

What supply chain challenges are affecting the availability and cost of fire suppression technologies for energy storage systems? The energy storage fire protection
PDF version includes complete article with source references. Suitable for printing and offline reading.
One trend that is perhaps universal to the global energy storage industry is an increased focus on fire safety, even if it’s one that is currently being felt more acutely in the US than elsewhere due to the recent high-profile fire at Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility in California.
With the advantages of high energy density, short response time and low economic cost, utility-scale lithium-ion battery energy storage systems are built and installed around the world. However, due to the thermal runaway characteristics of lithium-ion batteries, much more attention is attracted to the fire safety of battery energy storage systems.
According to incomplete statistics from the China Energy Storage Alliance (CNESA), by the end of 2023, the cumulative installed capacity of energy storage projects put into operation worldwide is 289.2 GW, with an annual growth rate of 21.9 % .
Since a large amount of energy is stored in the energy storage station in the form of chemical energy, once this energy is released in the form of heat and fire, it will cause serious damage. For example, in 2024, three LFP battery energy storage station fire accidents occurred in Germany within three months .
