6 FAQs about [Energy storage cost accounting for wind power projects]

Is wind power a performance and cost parameter?

The novelty of the present work is the recognition of the variability of wind power generation as a performance and cost parameter, and the proposal of a practical way to progress the design of the storage and its cost attribution to the generating facilities.

How much does a wind power system cost?

The installed capital costs for wind power systems vary significantly depending on the maturity of the market and the local cost structure. China and Denmark have the lowest installed capital costs for new onshore projects of between USD 1 300/kW and USD 1 384/kW in 2010.

Why is wind-only system without energy storage a profitable investment?

Under the current technical, economic, and financing environment, wind-only system without energy storage is the most economic and profitable investment. This is due to the avoidance of energy storage costs, energy losses due to round-trip efficiency, and receiving CfD payments.

How much debt does a wind project cost?

While over the same period, the quarterly average cost of debt for wind projects ranged from a low of 4.9% to a high of 11%.25 Making the simple assumption that the debt-to-equity ratio is between 50% and 80% and that debt maturity matches project length results in project discount rates of between 5.5% and 12.6%.26
