During this roundtable, experts will address the major challenge of finding a balance between LCOE and PPA revenues in a context of falling electricity prices as well as evolving Capex and financing costs. This session will analyze, among other things, the impact of changes in panel costs, other cost components, and interest rates on project business plans, and will provide insights on the future evolution of LCOE. These changes will be considered in light of the current evolution of prices for different types of PPAs, underlying market price volatility, and market design reform. The panel will discuss how to find a balance between these LCOEs and PPA prices and elements that can improve this equation, such as storage combined with PV projects.
