Customer ServiceThe improvements we’ve seen in battery technologies are not limited to lower costs. As Ziegler and Trancik show, the energy density of cells has also been increasing. Energy density measures the amount of electrical energy you can store in a liter (or unit) of battery. In 1991 you could only get 200 watt-hours (Wh) of capacity per liter of battery.
The price of lithium-ion battery cells declined by 97% in the last three decades. A battery with a capacity of one kilowatt-hour that cost $7500 in 1991 was just $181 in 2018. That’s 41 times less. What’s promising is that prices are still falling steeply: the cost halved between 2014 and 2018. A halving in only four years.
Fig. 8 The contributions of high-level mechanisms to lithium-ion battery cell cost decline between the late 1990s and early 2010s, including both the base case as well as combinations of other assignments. The primary assignment results are presented as bars.
Meanwhile, reductions in cathode materials prices contributed 18% of the cost reduction, and changes in non-material costs accounted for 14% of the cost decline. We also consider the contributions of high-level mechanisms, including research and development (R&D), learning-by-doing, and economies of scale.
Meanwhile, over the same two decades, changes in prices of anode materials, electrolyte solution, and separators each contributed approximately 5–7% of the cost reduction; and changes in other hardware and current collectors prices each contributed 1–2%.
