Title: Electricity storage and renewables: Costs and markets to 2030
Abstract: Like solar photovoltaic (PV) panels a decade earlier, battery electricity storage systems offer enormous deployment and cost-reduction potential, according to this study by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). By 2030, total installed costs could fall between 50% and 60% (and battery cell costs by even more), driven by optimisation of manufacturing facilities, combined with better combinations and reduced use of materials. Battery lifetimes and performance will also keep improving, helping to reduce the cost of services delivered. Lithium-ion battery costs for stationary applications could fall to below USD 200 per kilowatt-hour by 2030 for installed systems.2017-10-01T00:00:00ZRenewable Power: Climate-safe energy competes on cost alone

Title: Renewable Power: Climate-safe energy competes on cost alone
Abstract: Download
This brief prepared for COP24, the 24th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), highlights the sharply falling costs of solar, wind and other renewable power-generation options, along with the growing viability of energy storage technologies. It builds on findings in IRENA’s comprehensive report, Renewable power generation costs in 2017.
The cost of electricity from renewables has fallen steadily, and in some cases dramatically, since 2008, when solar and wind power first broke through as viable commercial options. Consequently, renewable power generation has become increasingly competitive with, or in many situations less costly than, fossil-based or nuclear power.2018-12-01T00:00:00ZRenewable Energy Cost Analysis - Solar Photovoltaics

Title: Renewable Energy Cost Analysis - Solar Photovoltaics
Abstract: The papers are not a detailed financial analysis of project economics. However, they do
provide simple, clear metrics based on up-to-date and reliable information which can be
used to evaluate the costs and performance of different renewable power generation
technologies. These reports help to inform the current debate about renewable power
generation and assist governments and key decision makers to make informed
decisions on policy and investment.
The dataset used in these papers will be augmented over time with new project cost
data collected from IRENA Member Countries. The combined data will be the basis for
forthcoming IRENA publications and toolkits to assist countries with renewable energy
policy development and planning. Therefore, we welcome your feedback on the data
and analysis presented in these papers, and we hope that they help you in your policy,
planning and investment decisions.2012-07-01T00:00:00Z
