| You might want to update your numbers, 1 kwh is somewhere between 50€/kwh to 75 including electronics...
No economics of scale, shipping included.. That makes 300B Eu pricing |

| Just by scaling up the existing technologies the full cost including installation and maintenance of a grid-scale battery in 5 years will be below 100 usd/kwh. So the price is max 400 billions or 1% of US GDP. |

78.4TWh is about $19T (all in costs) for a national battery grid for 1 week storage, could be built over ten years but would need the US to build and own double the current global output, not even considering where all the raw materials and labor comes from. | |

| ▲ | adrianN an hour ago | parent [-] | | You generally get more return on investment if you invest in building infrastructure in your own country rather than investing in blowing up infrastructure in a different country. So I’m implying that solar and batteries are a lot cheaper than the war in Iraq. |
