I think lithium batteries currently range $50-$100, $132 seems pretty high.

Might be comparing different metrics. If it's lifetime costs you have to cover replacement timelines for lithium degradation, facilities, and so on.

Lots of electronics involved when you have banks of thousands of batteries
