Another is that new transmission expenditures can only be avoided with more storage but relying on battery storage for reliability could be difficult with
current battery costs and chemistries.
Tesla recently stated that
its current battery cost is $ 190 per kWh for the Model S.
Not exact matches

Since 2008 doing approx 1000 miles per year, I put it through an mot on the 10th January, it passed without advisories;; The underneath is very solid indeed and doesn't need any work, the
current paint was done approx 7 years ago to a good standard but is not perfect, when it had a change from Albert Blue (traces of it around the
battery boxes) to the
current black;; It still has the US import sticker on the left side door post, the original chassis plate and the chassis stamp on the bulkhead are all there;; It drives very well, I've driven it for circa 40 miles with no problems;; It has 15» Fuchs alloys and the spare is a chrome steel wheel;; The rear end has been «modernised» at some point, I personally would remove the rear Porsche reflector and fit an original panel and bumper stops to get it back to the original pre impact bumper look, I could do this for you if required,
cost circa GBP 800;; The seats have been changed to 80's leather recaros and the door cards to a later style, again I'd put some period seats in and back date the door cards if required at
cost price;; The 80's recaros are worth good money so shouldn't be too much further expense if they were sold separately;; Further information to come but please contact me if you have any queries;; In summary, a really good looking classic 911Targa, that is great value and can be enjoyed as is, or improved for not a lot of money;;
Since
current Leaf customers average about 35 miles of driving per day, lowering the mileage to 80 helps Ford reduce the
battery size and reduce the overall
cost of the Ford Focus Electric by thousands.
Battery swaps on the other hand are expected to
cost between $ 60 and $ 80, or about what it
costs to fill up the average luxury sedan with premium fuel — at
current rates.
My guess would be that's something like the
current price for doing all the needed load balancing with contemporary lead - acid
battery storage, counting ramping up the lead industry to satisfy the sourcing and management of that much lead and sulfuric acid — in other words, it's somebody saying «it would
cost the Earth * to do that» as an argument that there will be no progress in energy storage, so it'd be a waste to build more renewables.
Depending on the price of gas and the
cost of electricity, estimates range from five to eight years — about the
current lifespan of a
battery.
But if a supply squeeze sends lithium prices through the roof — and causes fully - loaded
batteries to add more than the
current $ 10,000 or so to a car's total
cost — lithium - heavy chemistry could be a luxury GM can't afford.
