Solar power generation can be divided into two technological schemes: photovoltaic (PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP). The principle of CSP generation is to utilize large-scale mirrors to collect solar thermal energy, heat it through a heat exchanger to produce water steam, and then supply it to traditional turbine generators for electricity generation .
Construction cost of concentrated solar power plants (CSP) Traditional photovoltaic power plants based on PV panels have a huge disadvantage. This is low generation stability during the day. So-called concentrated solar power plants (CSP) provide greater grid stability compared to photovoltaics. This type of power plant began to develop

As an inexhaustible renewable and clean energy, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have been developed rapidly in China over the past decade, with installed capacity dramatically increasing from 0.2 GW in 2008 to 253 GW in 2020. However, the amount of solar PV power generation as a proportion of total electricity generation remains very low, at only
Between 2022 and 2023, utility-scale solar PV projects showed the most significant decrease (by 12%). For newly commissioned onshore wind projects, the global weighted average LCOE fell by 3% year-on-year; whilst for offshore wind, the cost of electricity of new projects decreased by 7% compared to 2022.
As seen in the largest photovoltaic projects in the world commissioned in 2019-2021, the cost of building a large photovoltaic solar power plant ranges from 500 thousand to 1 million euros for each megawatt of installed capacity.
In 2010, the cost of building a concentrated solar power plant was estimated at 9 million euros per megawatt of installed capacity. Despite technical advances, the cost of such projects is still at least 10 times higher than photovoltaics.
Even lower prices for solar power have been reported in sunnier regions of the world. A power purchase agreement for a 200 MW-solar farm in Dubai was recently signed for 5 ct/kWh (5.84 $ct/kWh). Projects under construction in Brazil, Uruguay and other countries are reported to pro-duce at costs below 7 ct/KWh.
The key parameter to determine the future cost of compo-nents of PV systems by a learning approach (methodology of price experience curve described in Section 4.1) is the num-ber of duplications in the cumulated produced PV capacity until 2050. We calculated the corresponding duplications for each of the 4 scenarios (Figure 15).
