The PV industry typically refers to PV CAPEX in units of $/MW DC based on the aggregated module capacity. The electric utility industry typically refers to PV CAPEX in units of $/MW AC based on the aggregated inverter capacity;
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.).
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 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.
Source: World Bank, 2016. With an expanding market for the installation of solar PV systems in Africa, it naturally can be expected that companies which produce solar PV modules locally will emerge and become more common.
Other countries 4 In this report, the term “cost structures” refers to the individual cost components that contribute to the total installed costs of a solar PV system (e.g., modules, inverters, racking and mounting, cabling, installation costs, permitting fees, system design costs, etc.).
