6 FAQs about [Containerized microgrid price per MWh]

How much does a microgrid cost?

The analysis shows that controller cost data as a percentage of total microgrid costs have a wide range of costs among the projects in our database. In total, we had controller cost data for 21 microgrids out of a total of 80 projects. Controller costs per megawatt range from $6,200/MW–$470,000/MW, excluding outliers, with a mean of $155,000/MW.

How much does energy storage cost a microgrid?

In commercial/industrial and utility microgrids, soft costs (43% and 24%, respectively) represent significant portion of the total costs per megawatt. Finally, energy storage contributes significantly to the total cost of commercial and community microgrids, which have percentages of 25% and 15%, respectively, of the total costs per megawatt.

Are controller costs a percentage of total microgrid costs?

Controller costs as a percentage of total costs range from 0.5%–21%, a median of 7%, and one outlier with a value of 56% (Figure 20.). The analysis shows that controller cost data as a percentage of total microgrid costs have a wide range of costs among the projects in our database.

Why is it difficult to generalize costs for Microgrid technology?

For microgrid technology, it is particularly challenging to generalize costs because every installation has unique design and architecture characteristics that affect the overall cost of the individual microgrid components.

How does microgrid capacity affect soft costs?

Figure A-8. shows soft costs as a percentage of microgrid cost as a function of microgrid capacity. With the exception of the outliers identified in Figure A-7., soft costs generally follow a downward trend as microgrid capacity increases.

Where can I find a report on microgrid costs?

This report is available at no cost from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) at Giraldez, Julieta, Francisco Flores-Espino, Sara MacAlpine, and Peter Asmus. 2018. Phase I Microgrid Cost Study: Data Collection and Analysis of Microgrid Costs in the United States.
