The Energy Storage Technology and Cost Forecast (ESTAC, formerly the BTAC) is a quarterly report for which Kiwa PVEL and Exawatt/CRU have jointly developed a methodology that leverages bottom-up cost analysis, based on data gathered from more than 180 publicly traded companies throughout the lithium-ion cell supply chain, combined with a manufacturing model that contains over 100 input variables. Additionally, manufacturer top-down forecasts and industry trends across the past 5 years are incorporated into the model.
