U.S. Solar Photovoltaic System and Energy Storage Cost Benchmarks, With Minimum Sustainable Price Analysis: Q1 2023. Golden, CO: National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
The current MSP benchmarks for PV systems in 2022 real USD are $28.78/kWdc/yr (residential), $39.83/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.12/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking). For MMP, the current benchmarks are $30.36/kWdc/yr (residential), $40.51/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.58/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking).
The MSP benchmarks for PV-plus-storage systems (in 2022 real USD/kWdc/yr) are $61.28 (residential), $75.25 (community solar), and $50.73 (utility-scale). For MMP, the benchmarks are $65.04 (residential), $76.79 (community solar), and $51.88 (utility-scale).
These benchmarks help measure progress toward goals for reducing solar electricity costs and guide SETO research and development programs. Read more to find out how these cost benchmarks are modeled and download the data and cost modeling program below.
