AI Customer ServiceThe module price will fall from $0.22 per Watt-peak of generation capacity, in summer 2023, to $0.097/Wp in 2030. Global volume will rise by a factor of 11 and the price will more than halve. The following chart shows the expected volume growth and price reduction from 2023 as a forecast based on previous developments.
Between 2022 and 2023, utility-scale solar PV projects showed the most significant decrease (by 12%). For newly commissioned onshore wind projects, the global weighted average LCOE fell by 3% year-on-year; whilst for offshore wind, the cost of electricity of new projects decreased by 7% compared to 2022.
Using nation-specific, component-level price data and global PV installation and silicon price data, we estimate learning rates for solar PV modules in the three largest solar-deploying countries (China, Germany and the United States) between 2006 and 2020 using a two-factor learning model.
We expect the volume of installed solar generation capacity to rise from 1.24 TW, in 2022, to around 14 TW in 2030. The module price will fall from $0.22 per Watt-peak of generation capacity, in summer 2023, to $0.097/Wp in 2030. Global volume will rise by a factor of 11 and the price will more than halve.
For comparison, the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory 2021 Annual Technology Baseline report predicts that solar PV modules will reach US$170 per kW, US$190 per kW and US$320 per kW by 2030 in advanced, moderate and conservative improvement scenarios, respectively 19.
Since November 2022 alone, PV module prices have roughly halved, to a record low. To put that into perspective, electricity prices on the European Energy Exchange in Leipzig averaged €30 ($32.64) per megawatt-hour in 2020 and have fluctuated between €77/MWh and €102/MWh since March 2023.
