Reference: 2024 global average pack price ~ $0. 115/Wh, the largest annual drop since 2017, driven by LFP adoption, lower materials, and overcapacity. 115/Wh globally in 2024 (down ~20% YoY), but finished consumer systems (portable power stations) retail much higher due to inverters, BMS, certifications, and margins.

Over the last decade and a half, average EV battery pack costs have fallen about 90% while energy density and durability have steadily improved.
