Projections overestimate the costs of wind power and solar photovoltaics (PV) by excluding existing flexibility strategies like dispatchable renewables, demand response, and grid expansion, and by adding inflated integration costs due to low spatial and temporal granularity .
By expressing battery system costs in $/kWh, we are deviating from other power generation technologies such as combustion turbines or solar photovoltaic plants where capital costs are usually expressed as $/kW. We use the units of $/kWh because that is the most common way that battery system costs have been expressed in published material to date.
These expenses may include water consumption, waste and wastewater discharge, chemicals such as selective catalytic reduction ammonia, and consumables including lubricants and calibration gas. Because these costs are generation dependent, the values are levelized by the cost per unit of energy generation and presented in $/MWh.
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.
This study builds on previous cost and technical assumption studies, including the Electricity Generation Costs Report 2023 (DESNZ, 2023a), the Onshore Wind and Solar PV Costs
All technologies demonstrate some degree of variability in cost, based on project size, location, and access to key infrastructure (such as grid interconnections, fuel supply, and
The levelised cost of electricity produced from most forms of renewable power continued to fall year-on-year in 2023, with solar PV leading the cost reductions, followed by offshore wind.
Utility-scale solar and wind power are now the lowest-cost sources of additional clean generation in many regions, with cost projections driving investment decisions and policy planning.
