This report benchmarks installed costs for U.S. solar photovoltaic (PV) systems as of the first quarter of 2021 (Q1 2021). We use a bottom-up method, accounting for all system and project
The benchmarks in this report are bottom-up cost estimates of all major inputs to PV and energy storage system installations. Bottom-up costs are based on national averages and do not
NREL has been modeling U.S. solar photovoltaic (PV) system costs since 2009. This year, our report benchmarks costs of U.S. PV for residential, commercial, and utility-scale systems, with

) of PV-plus-storage systems are estimated using PV capacity to reflect the additional cost required to install hybrid systems over installing stand-alone PV systems. The cost range shows the difference in cost between DC-coupled and AC -coupled systems. b All energy storage capacity rating mentioned in this report are in DC.
Q1 2022 U.S. benchmark: 7.9-kWdc residential PV system cost (2021 USD/Wdc) This section describes our commercial PV model’s structure and parameters in intrinsic units (Section 6.1) as well as its output (Section 6.2).
• Stand-alone 100-MW DC PV system with one-axis tracking ($89 million) • Stand-alone 60-MW DC /240-MWh Usable , 4-hour-duration energy storage system ($90 million 19 ) • DC-coupled PV (100-MW DC ) plus storage (60-MW D/AC /240-MWh Usable , 4-hour-duration) system ($168 million) 19
Based on our bottom-up modeling, the Q1 2021 PV and energy storage cost benchmarks are those listed in Table ES-2: 1 Profit is one of the differentiators of “cost” (aggregated expenses incurred by a developer or installer to build a system) and “price” (what an end user pays for a system).
The current MSP benchmarks for PV systems in 2022 real USD are $28.78/kWdc/yr (residential), $39.83/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.12/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking). For MMP, the current benchmarks are $30.36/kWdc/yr (residential), $40.51/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.58/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking).
