Description: Graph of levelized cost of energy (starting with LCOE 14.0, October 2020) for various energy sources as a function of year, derived from LCOE data from Lazard Source for Version 7 (data through 2024): Lazard LCOE Levelized Cost Of Energy+ 16. Lazard (June 2024). Archived from the original on 28 August 2024. Source for Version 4: (includes data through 2022): 2023 Levelized Cost Of Energy+ 9. Lazard (12 April 2023). Archived from the original on 27 August 2023. (Download link labeled "Lazard's LCOE+ (April 2023) (1) PDF—1MB") Source states: "...significant historical cost declines for utility-scale renewable energy generation technologies driven by, among other factors, decreasing capital costs, improving technologies and increased competition". Source states: "The LCOE no longer analyzes solar thermal costs", explaining why the "Solar towers" trace stops in 2019.

So why aren’t we using it more?". Popular Science. Archived from the original on 29 January 2021. ● Chodosh's graphic is derived from data in Lazard’s Levelized Cost of Energy Version 14.0. Lazard.com. Lazard (19 October 2020). Archived from the original on 28 January 2021. Suggested caption: With increasingly widespread implementation of renewable energy sources, costs have declined, most notably for energy generated by solar panels.[cite] Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) is a measure of the average net present cost of electricity generation for a generating plant over its lifetime. Version 1 was created with Inkscape.
