Solar Prices Vary, So Shop Around

Views: 1322

The average installed cost in


. . . 2008 was about $9 per watt,


. . . 2011 was about $7 per watt,


. . . 2012 maybe $6 per watt.

In 2008, there was a shortage of polysilicon,


. . . a main ingredient in many solar cells,


. . . so demand outpaced supply, driving up costs.


Since then, silicon prices have dropped.
