What are the cost forecasts used in IESO's P2D study?
The cost forecasts used in this module are updated from the values that were used in the IESO’s P2D study and are based on the NREL ATB report. NREL provides capital cost projections for wind generation and both utility-scale and distribution-scale installations of solar and storage.
How much does a solar power system cost?
Current capital costs of wind, solar PV, and battery range from approximately $1,800/kW to $3,100kW and are forecast to decline to $900/kW to $1,800/kW by . 1 NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory). . " Annual Technology Baseline."
How do IESO forecast the cost of new renewable resources?
The IESO currently bases most of its forecasts for the cost of new renewable resources on the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s (NREL) Annual Technology Baseline (ATB) report1. The ATB is an annual survey of resource cost projections that is a common reference point for both industry and academic studies.
While our research included looking at recent Power Purchase Agreements, the estimates provided are intended to represent project costs, not the likely price of PPAs, which are priced with consideration of residual value when the PPA expires.

Levelized Cost of Natural Gas is $3.771 per MMBtu. Fuel Cost Projections are from the IESO APO . Carbon Tax is assumed to increase by $15/ton from $65/ton to $170 by and stay constant. For project costs, we assume the tax is levelized over the project life. Detailed assumptions are
This project identified a variety of insights for Canadian policymakers related to investment in electricity storage technologies, the development of Canada’s electricity system and decarbonization in general. It did so by simulating different future scenarios for Canada’s energy system, which vary
Most recently, the Federal Budget built upon the 30% Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit (ITC) announced in November’s Fall Economic Statement, with the introduction of a 30% Clean Technology Manufacturing Credit and a 15% Clean Electricity ITC, which expands eligibility to non-taxable
This module provides current and forecasted capital costs of wind, solar and battery storage resources and the operational considerations associated with these resources in the context of a supply mix that will continue to evolve as a result of decarbonization and electrification. In summary, the
Bloomberg New Energy Finance predicts that non-hydro energy storage installations worldwide will reach a cumulative 411GW/1,194GWh by the end of . That is 15 times the 27GW/56GWh of storage at the end of . In addition to ’s 30% Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit, the Federal
