The battery was commissioned on time in December 2021, a year after contract, [34] with an estimated return on investment of 2.4. [35] In December 2021, Strata Solar, an American commercial solar services provider, deployed a 100 MW/400 MWh energy storage facility in Ventura County, California, using 142 Megapacks. [36]
The storage losses are calculated based on the capacity of the battery storage, the assumed number of cycles and the efficiency of the battery. The results include differences in PV costs, battery costs (500 to 1200 EUR/kWh), and varying solar irradiation. For larger rooftop PV systems with battery storage, the battery costs between 600 and ...
As of 2018 the state only had 150 GWh of storage, primarily in pumped storage and a small fraction in batteries. According to another study, supplying 80% of US demand from VRE would require a smart grid covering the whole country or battery storage capable to supply the whole system for 12 hours, both at cost estimated at $2.5 trillion.
In 2023, the company deployed solar energy systems capable of generating 223 megawatts (MW), a decrease of 36% over 2022, and deployed 14.7 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of battery energy storage products, an increase of 125% over 2022. The division generated $6.04 billion in revenue for the company in 2023, a 55% increase over 2022.

A May 2015 article in Forbes magazine calculated that using a Tesla Powerwall 1 model combined with solar panels in a home would cost 30 cents/kWh for electricity if a home remains connected to the grid (the article acknowledges that the Tesla battery could make economic sense in applications that are entirely off-grid). US consumers got ...
