Ground-mounted PV is Germany's most cost-effective power generation technology, according to Fraunhofer ISE.

A Lawrence Berkeley National Lab report has quantified the improving value of solar and wind power in the US.

US analyst Lazard notes that renewable energy technologies continue to have some of the lowest LCOE figures in the US.

Digitalisation offers PV plant operators the opportunity to shift from preventive to predictive maintenance practices. Eduardo Sarquis reports on research aimed at shedding further light on the system performance benefits of moving to a predictive O&M strategy.

Becquerel Institute CEO, Gaëtan Masson, looks at the influence of module pricing on solar competitiveness in Europe

With the United States on the cusp of an IRA-driven surge in utility-scale PV deployment, Mark Bolinger and Joachim Seel of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory cover key technology and market trends in this synopsis of their annual “Utility-Scale Solar” report series.

The levelised cost of energy for solar PV will drop to US$21/MWh by 2050, according to DNV's Energy Transition Outlook 2030.

An IRENA report into the cost of producing power has found that the levelised cost of electricity in the solar PV sector fell by 3% in 2022.

Ashley Wang of N-type specialist Solar N Plus talks to PV Tech director David Evans at this year's SNEC in Shanghai, China.

Falling solar module prices in recent years mean it can be beneficial to oversize the DC capacity in PV plants. John Leslie of BTY presents findings from a study that suggests developers should, in certain cases, investigate using higher DC/AC ratio designs.
