Future Years Projections of utility-scale PV plant CAPEX for 2035 are based on bottom-up cost modeling, with 2022 values from (Ramasamy et al., 2022) and a straight-line change in price in the intermediate years between 2022 and 2035.
				    The growth of solar and wind power capacities depends largely on their cost and tariff trends. Various domestic policies and global shocks have impacted these two factors.

				    The overall 1 MW solar power plant cost is influenced by multiple factors such as the choice of solar panels, inverters, and additional infrastructure required. The cost of a 1 MW solar panel
				    Plus, the system type matters too. For instance, off-grid or hybrid PV setups can be pricier because they need battery backup. But if we consider the average price of a 5 MW solar plant, it would typically fall in the
The Kenya Renewable Energy Association also pointed out that, “The average solar PV system size for households in Kenya is 25-30Wp. The typical cost of installed systems is about 12 USD/Wp installed” (KEREA, n.d.).
Sikubora – Sikubora originates from the USA, however, purely focuses on the Tanzanian market with it’s Pico Solar Home Systems. SolarGridTZ – SolarGrid is a Tanzanian company aiming to provide solar energy to 80% of the Tanzania population which does not have access to power yet.
On-grid commissioned and planned utility-scale solar PV projects between 2014 and 2018 in Africa range from around USD 1.2 to USD 4.9/W (USD 1 200 to 4 900/kW). Although Africa is currently home to a very small set of utility-scale solar PV projects, costs have been declining over time.
The systems in West Africa for which IRENA has data are smaller in size, with correspondingly higher costs per watt, although the larger systems are close to the median value of USD 2.9/W (with little diference for the on- and of-grid projects).
The average residential solar PV system in OECD countries has a capacity of 3 to 5 kW. SHS in Africa can be 60 to 250 times smaller, with a typical capacity of 20 to 100 W. In addition to having higher costs per watt due to their small size, these systems need to incorporate batteries and charge controllers.
Stand-alone solar PV mini-grids or solar PV-hybrid mini-grids have installed costs in Africa ranging from USD 1.9 to USD 5.9/W for systems greater than 200 kW. Solar PV mini-grids that came online in 2012 or earlier have higher costs.
