What is solar PV Grid parity?

Solar photovoltaics (PV) ‘grid parity’ has come into view since 2010. As currently conceived, grid parity is considered the tipping point of the cost effectiveness of solar PV technology, at which point it can be ensured that solar PV power generation is competing with conventional power supplies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Can photovoltaic power achieve grid parity?

Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. Today, photovoltaic (PV) power generation accounts for a relatively small proportion of total power generation in China. If photovoltaic power can achieve grid parity, it can replace the original traditional thermal power generation, which has positive significance on the environment.

Does distributed PV achieve grid parity?

Relevant studies indicated that distributed PV has realized grid parity basically in China, while centralized PV, which belongs to the generation side, still has some difficulties in achieving grid parity.

Does DPV power generation achieve grid parity?

Although this paper analyzed the grid parity of DPV power generation in China, the results and conclusions are of reference value to other countries and regions, especially in areas where DPV power generation has not yet achieved grid parity.
