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).
