On average, mean LCOS of technologies with the highest probability to be most cost efficient reduce 36% and 53% by 2030 and 2050 relative to 2015, respectively, across the modeled applications. For applications R300 annual cycles, LCOS reduce from 150–600 US$/MWh (2015) to 130–200 US$/MWh (2050), for between.
At this point, the storage of excess renewables becomes more interesting because the energy will be harnessed at times of reduced energy prices and can be consumed at times of peak demand. In terms of the operating hours of the main equipment, there is an increasing trend in the price of LCOS as the loading and unloading time …
