PVSEC Marseille - New approach for future cost and price predictions
In this paper a new cost model methodology is introduced which allows to predict future module costs and prices based on technology learning and price experience. As point of reference for the cost model the major cost parameters for producing wafers, cells and modules are analyzed for the year 2018. Similar to Price Experience Curves with characteristic Price Experience Factors...

Eine vollständige Versorgung mit erneuerbaren Energien war bis vor wenigen Jahren für die allermeisten unvorstellbar. Doch in nur einer Dekade sind die Kosten der Umwandlung von Wind- und Sonnenenergie in Strom (die Gestehungskosten) aufgrund der technologischen Entwicklung und der zunehmenden Massenfertigung deutlich gesunken und vergleichbar zu konventionellen Kraftwerken. Angesichts des weiteren Potenzials für Kostensenkungen ist zu erwarten, dass die regionale und dezentrale Stromversorgung mit erneuerbaren Energien in Verbindung mit Speichertechnologien schnell voranschreiten wird.

Paper published in proceedings of PVSEC 2009 in Hamburg
Decades of research have demonstrated how several industries related to PV solar – semiconductors and flat panel displays, among others – have generated steady and predictable declines in the “price experience curve” (PEC) and Price Experience Factor (PEF). This paper analyzes factors that apply to PV solar in order to project expected cost and price declines from the present towards 2020. Thin film technology offers a somewhat greater potential decline of module cost and price compared to crystalline silicon technology, due to its technological similarity to flat panel displays and the cost-cutting potential of large-area substrates. However, the higher efficiency of c-Si PV modules may offset that advantage when overall system cost and price is considered. Ultimately, the decline for both cost curves should prove to be quite significant and therefore enable increased and widespread adoption of PV technology for a variety of applications.
