Evaluating the causes of cost reduction in photovoltaic modules

To identify the reasons, we advance an analysis method that bridges top-down, high-level analyses of technology cost evolution with bottom-up engineering models.
MIT Open Access Articles Evaluating the causes of cost reduction in

Improvements to module e ciency and materials costs were important. Since 2001, increasing plant size enabled economies of scale to reduce costs. Market-stimulating policies were responsible for a large share
