Price declines and volume growth of concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) systems are analysed
using the learning curve methodology and compared with other forms of solar electricity …

In a large number of energy models, the use of learning curves for estimating technological
improvements has become popular. This is based on the assumption that technological …

This paper analyzes the relationship between the declines in solar photovoltaic (PV) module
costs and cumulative production, silicon prices, supply− demand imbalance and the …

This paper offers an overview about the current status of the concentrator photovoltaic
technologies and market. It highlights the potential of this technology to bring the cost of …

The status of the solar industry is changing rapidly. From the time this study was started to
the time the report was completed, some of the details were already out of date. If you would …

This paper assesses the prospects for diffusion of photovoltaic (PV) technology for electricity
generation in grid-connected systems. The analysis begins with the calculation of the break …

This article gives an overview of the current state-of-the-art of photovoltaic electricity
technology, and addresses its potential for cost reductions over the first few decades of the …

Concentrating solar power (CSP) offers the value proposition of being a baseload and
dispatchable renewable energy technology. CSP significantly lags behind solar photovoltaic …

We estimate the long-run economic value of photovoltaic (PV) generation with increasing
penetration using a unique investment and dispatch model that captures long-run …

This article examines the prospects for cost reductions of flat panel photovoltaic (PV)
electricity. Current PV production cost ranges are presented, in terms of cost per peak W and …
