A Techno-Economic Model for Benchmarking the Production Cost
Thus, developing a cost model that simultaneously includes the physical and chemical characteristics of battery cells, commodities prices, process parameters, and economic
The current cost model is based on a modified battery cell production model already developed by Jinasena et al. to estimate energy and material flow in a large-scale battery cell plant. Section 2 provides a brief explanation of the production model, proceeding with a detailed study of the design and calculation of the cost model.
Battery production cost models are critical for evaluating the cost competitiveness of different cell geometries, chemistries, and production processes. To address this need, we present a detailed bottom-up approach for calculating the full cost, marginal cost, and levelized cost of various battery production methods.
Battery production cost models are critical for evaluating cost competitiveness but frequently lack transparency and standardization. A bottom-up approach for calculating the full cost, marginal cost, and levelized cost of various battery production methods is proposed, enriched by a browser-based modular user tool.
Since the developed cost model is tied to a large volume of parameters and variables, conducting a sensitivity analysis gives insights into the influence of parameters on the total battery cell production cost. First, the sensitivity of the current cost model to different battery chemistries is examined.
