All the technical and economic parameters were obtained by conducting a market analysis and proposes a LCOE model, which includes the standard parameters (investment costs, operational and maintenance costs) and adds the residual value of the PV system at the end of lifetime.
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.
Our operations and maintenance (O&M) analysis breaks costs into various categories and provides total annualized O&M costs. The MSP results for PV systems (in units of 2022 real USD/kWdc/yr) are $28.78 (residential), $39.83 (community solar), and $16.12 (utility-scale).
Market prices can include items such as smaller-market-share PV systems (e.g., those with premium efficiency panels), atypical system configurations due to site irregularities (e.g., additional land grading) or customer preferences (e.g., pest traps), and specific project requirements (e.g., unionized labor).

The impact of photovoltaic poverty alleviation policy (PPAP) on household energy poverty is empirically investigated. The panel data of a tracking survey from 2010 to 2018 is used, and the high-dimensional fixed effect model is employed. PPAP contributed positively to alleviating household energy poverty.
Therefore, based on the research results, the following policy recommendations for rural PV energy construction are made: 1. The publicity and popularization of poverty alleviation policies should be increased. There is a need for public enthusiasm for participation, which will help drive the renewable energy revolution.
The solar energy for poverty alleviation program (SEPAP) in China aims to add over 10 GW of solar capacity to benefit over 2 million citizens by 2020 4.
We propose several policy recommendations to sustain progress in China's efforts to deploy PV for poverty alleviation. China's economy has undergone an unprecedented transformation over the past two decades. During this transformation, China has made rapid progress in reducing poverty.
