Summary

Description
English: Graph of levelized cost of energy (starting with LCOE 14.0, October 2020) for various energy sources as a function of year, derived from LCOE data from Lazard
  • Source for Version 4 (includes data through 2022): 2023 Levelized Cost Of Energy+ 9. Lazard (12 April 2023). Archived from the original on 27 August 2023. (Download link labeled "Lazard's LCOE+ (April 2023) (1) PDF—1MB")
  • Source states: "...significant historical cost declines for utility-scale renewable energy generation technologies driven by, among other factors, decreasing capital costs, improving technologies and increased competition".
  • Source states: "The LCOE no longer analyzes solar thermal costs", explaining why the "Solar towers" trace stops in 2019.
  • Technical note: most SVG code was automatically generated by the "Linecharts" spreadsheet linked at User:RCraig09/Excel to XML for SVG. Additions and adjustments were made in a text editor.

With increasingly widespread implementation of renewable energy sources, costs have declined, most notably for energy generated by solar panels.[cite]
Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) is a measure of the average net present cost of electricity generation for a generating plant over its lifetime.
  • Version 1 was created with Inkscape.
