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.
Total installed solar PV in Africa is dominated by South Africa, where an increased number of installations have been carried out in recent years under the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP).
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.
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).
