Solar energy data analysis examines a wide range of issues such as solar adoption trends and the performance and reliability of solar energy generation facilities.
The cost of the electricity generated by a PV system is determined by the capital cost (CAPEX), the discount rate, the variable costs (OPEX), the level of solar irradiation and the eficiency of the solar cells.
The module cost can be divided by the cost of materials, overhead cost, and capital cost. The capital costs for Module A and B were calculated based on the capital costs of DSCs fabricated using the printing process and thin-film silicon solar cells, respectively (Table S2 and S3).
The average cost of BOS and installation for PV systems is in the range of USD 1.6 to USD 1.85/W, depending on whether the PV system is ground-mounted or rooftop, and whether it has a tracking system (Bony, 2010 and Photon, 2011). The LCOE of PV systems is therefore highly dependent on BOS and installation costs, which include:
