The prices of solar panels are coming down, while the price of traditional grid electricity has shot up. According to the Energy Saving Trust (EST), a typical 3.5kWp solar panel system in 2023 costs £5,500, which is much cheaper than 10 years ago – and could provide you with free electricity for more than 25 years.
The cost of solar PV modules has dropped by a massive 90% since 2000! The installed price of residential solar panel systems dropped by 26% over the last decade - from 5.7 $/W in 2013 to 4.2 $/W in 2022. Solar PV module prices dropped by 51% over the last decade - from 0.99 $/W in 2013 to 0.49 $/W in 2022.
System Size: The solar panel system’s size directly impacts its price. While larger systems might have steeper installation fees, they often offer a more economical price per kilowatt (kW). For instance, a 4kW solar panel system in the UK typically costs about £6,000. Installation cost is generally a combination of various factors.
Where you’re based in the country can have a significant impact on solar PV prices. According to the MCS data, costs are generally highest in England (£2,227 per kW in 2023, measured over 104,000 installs) and lowest in Northern Ireland (£1,518 per kW across 1,316 installs).
According to the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), the standards organisation for renewable products and installers, there have been over 128,000 domestic solar PV installs so far in 2023. That’s already a 15% uplift versus 2022 (itself a record year), no doubt spurred by sky-high energy bills and the desire to reduce carbon emissions.
Data from Berkley Lab’s Tracking The Sun report (2023) shows that the price of solar PV modules has seen a 51% drop over the last decade. In 2013 the median cost of the solar PV modules used in residential systems was 0.99 $/W. In 2022 the median was 0.49 $/W. The cost of solar PV modules has dropped by a massive 90% since 2000.
