Cost and CO2 reductions of solar photovoltaic power generation in China ...
To improve the understanding of the cost and benefit of photovoltaic (PV) power generation in China, we analyze the per kWh cost, fossil energy replacement and level of CO 2 mitigation, as well as the cost per unit of reduced CO 2 of PV power generation in 2020 at the province level. Three potential PV systems are examined: …
Solar lease or PPA: With a solar lease or PPA, you don''t own your system, so you don''t qualify for some of the best solar incentives. With a solar lease, you pay a fixed monthly lease payment, whereas with a PPA, you agree to purchase the power generated by your system at a set price per kilowatt-hour (kWh).
