Assuming that the market share of PV systems ramps up from 0 to 30 %, that is, a proportional increase in PV installation, the unit investment cost of PV can be decrease by around 70 % . Therefore, the issue of the correlation between the downward trend of PV costs and installed capacity must be taken seriously.
The large-scale deployment of PV generation has ramped up the intermittency and uncertainty of power systems, and these inevitable issues have pushed up the costs of the entire PV system, especially the balancing costs and grid infrastructure costs that cannot be ignored .
IEA PVPS 3 reported that the total utility-scale PV power plant market in 2017 had a size of 61.4 GWp with an average volume-weighted market price of 0.857 $/Wp, which equals 0.759 €/Wp with the current average $/€ exchange rate of 1.13.
Well documented are the utility-scale PV CAPEX assumptions in the integrated assessment models used for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports, 13 resulting in PV CAPEX of 1.79 $/Wp in 2020, 1.50 $/Wp in 2030, and 1.15 $/Wp in 2050.
The average cost of PV energy for public utilities in China was below 0.37CNY/kWh (0.0541USD/kWh) in 2020 . In 2021, the price of China's PV electricity to upload to the State Grid was reduced to equal to local desulfurized coal electricity price (DCEP) .
Owing to fast and comprehensive advancement of technologies and techniques, and vigorous emergence and speedy development of energy internet, solar photovoltaics (PV) has become one of the cleanest, smartest and most economical means of power generations .

Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is commonly applied to cost accounting of energy, while neglecting the specific cost compositions of PV leads to an overly optimistic scenario. By integrating grid costs and balancing costs into conventional LCOE framework, a System LCOE (S-LCOE) model was constructed to evaluate the economic feasibility of ...
