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.
Fig. 7 The contributions of high-level mechanisms to the cost decline of 18650-sized lithium-ion battery cells between the late 1990s and early 2010s. The total change in cost is measured in units of USD W−1 h−1 while cost change contributions are expressed as percentages of this total cost change.
Some studies suggested that lithium-ion batteries would not fall in cost quickly enough for certain applications, while others were much more optimistic. Such differences in data can ultimately have a real impact on the setting of research priorities and government incentives.
When possible, data are split into subgroups based on cell type, with a focus on separating cylindrical cells from all cell shapes. We then explore the relationships between the price decline of lithium-ion technologies and a range of factors, including time, market size, and research and development activity.
In addition to helping to boost the ongoing electrification of transportation, further declines in lithium-ion battery costs could potentially also increase the batteries’ usage in stationary applications as a way of compensating for the intermittent supply of clean energy sources such as solar and wind.
