Lithium-ion and molten-salt battery costs will approach $500/kWh by 2022, reducing the high capital cost of emerging grid storage technologies. Li-ion batteries are dependent on cost reductions from mass production while molten-salt batteries and VRFBs rely on long discharge durations to reduce costs.
