Utility-Scale PV | Electricity | 2024 | ATB | NLR
Though CAPEX is one driver of lower costs, R&D efforts continue to focus on other areas to lower the cost of energy from utility-scale PV, such as
Cost of electricity by source
Solar power was by far the most expensive renewable source of electricity among the technologies studied, although increasing efficiency and
Renewable Power Generation Costs in 2024
Nevertheless, the combination of capacity factors, market share, and financing costs led to a slight increase in the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) for some technologies: solar PV by 0.6%,
