LCOS
Lazard's Levelized Cost of Storage analysis provides a transparent, logical methodology for comparing the cost of energy storage across distinct use cases for more than a dozen storage technologies.
Utilities, third-party providers, and users can use the levelized approach to get an apples-to-apples comparison of costs across multiple technologies within specific, real-world use cases for energy storage.
Enovation Analytics worked with Lazard to develop the methodology, gather the data, and conduct the analysis for their three Levelized Cost of Storage study.
The most recent version of the Lazard LCOS report was released in the November 2018.
