Will California's New PV rules affect PV-plus-storage systems?

In the longer term, analysts expect the new rules to constrain PV-only deployment in California and ultimately spur the deployment of PV-plus-storage systems, which have higher upfront costs (Wood Mackenzie and SEIA 2022b). Our interviews also indicated market and policy trends affecting system costs between Q1 2022 and Q1 2023.

How much does a PV system cost in 2022?

The current MSP benchmarks for PV systems in 2022 real USD are $28.78/kWdc/yr (residential), $39.83/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.12/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking). For MMP, the current benchmarks are $30.36/kWdc/yr (residential), $40.51/kWdc/yr (community solar), and $16.58/kWdc/yr (utility-scale, single-axis tracking).

How efficient is a rooftop PV system?

We model a baseline 8-kWdc rooftop PV system using 20.8%-efficient, 1.97-m2 monofacial monocrystalline silicon modules from a Tier 1 U.S. supplier, microinverters with an inverter loading ratio (ILR) of 1.21 imported from China with the Section 301 tariff, and a 5-kW/12.5-kWh alternating-current (ac) coupled lithium-ion storage system.
