In our base case, a 6-hour battery that charges and discharges daily needs a storage spread of 20c/kWh to earn a 10% IRR on $3,000/kW of up-front capex. Longer-duration redox flow batteries start to out-compete lithium ion batteries for grid-scale storage.

Battery sizing is goal-driven: Emergency backup requires 10-20 kWh, bill optimization needs 20-40 kWh, while energy independence demands 50+ kWh. Your primary use case should drive capacity decisions, not maximum theoretical needs.
