Solar module prices may approach the threshold of $0.10/W by the end of 2024 or eventually in 2025, according to Tim Buckley, director of Australia-based think tank Climate Energy Finance (CEF).
PV module price development according to PV Index of Sunstore. Average trading PV module prices were at 0.124 EUR/W across Europe in February both for bifacial and monofacial modules. PV PMI (Purchasing Managers’ Index) score increased from 68 in January to 73 in February, underlining strong demand.
Overview by technology of different price points in November 2024, including the changes over the previous month: Only tax-free prices for photovoltaic modules are shown. The prices stated reflect the average offer prices in retail and on the European spot market (customs cleared).
On average, prices in all module categories have been corrected downwards by around 10%. Never before in the history of photovoltaics have panel prices plummeted so significantly in such a short space of time.
Monitoring the price development of solar modules is of crucial importance for investors, manufacturers and other players in the solar energy industry. A sound understanding of market trends makes it possible to make the most of opportunities and take forward-looking decisions.
Tim Buckley, director of Climate Energy Finance, speaks to <b>pv magazine</b> about the current steep trajectory of solar module prices. He estimates that PV panels prices will end up dropping by 40% this year and predicts the closure of old technology and sub-scale solar manufacturing facilities, both in China and globally.
