Key findings: Renewable power generation costs in 2019

Solar PV The cost of electricity from solar PV and CSP fell 82% between 2010 and 2019. Cost improvements since 2010 were driven mainly by the 90% reduction in module prices, along with declining balance-of-system costs. These pushed total solar PV installed costs down almost four-fifths over the last decade. Onshore wind and offshore wind
