Table 19. Low-Cost Case Reference Low Cost Case Cost Assumptions Solar field cost ($/m2) Thermal storage ($/kWht) Power cycle cost ($/kWe) Total plant capital cost ($/kWe) O&M cost (¢/kWh) First-year electricity price (¢/kWh) 6.4 Financial Incentives 200 150 17.6 13.2 1,700 1,275 7,713 5,785 2.5 1.9 20.1 15.1 The analysis of the baseline system assumes current IPP financial assumptions for a plant located in California. Currently, other financial incentives are being considered. IPP plants currently can use a 10% investment tax credit (ITC). Most renewable technologies are moving away from the ITC to a production tax credit (PTC). We evaluated three tax credit cases in addition to the baseline with the 10% ITC (Table 19). The first is switching to a 10-year 1.7¢/per kWh PTC that inflates with inflation. This gave results very similar to the current 10% ITC. The second case includes both the current ITC and the proposed PTC. This results in a 9% cost reduction. The third case increases the ITC from 10 to 50%. This significantly reduces the cost of power by 37%. California currently offers a capital buydown for small renewable power systems. Systems under 10 kWe are eligible for buydowns of up to $4,500/kWe, or 50% of the capital cost. For purpose of this analysis, we looked at a buydown of $3,500/kWe (approximately 50% of the capital cost). This reduced the cost of power by 42%. Currently, a 1-MWe system would not be eligible for this buydown. California also offers a number of low-interest loans for renewable power technologies. Interest rates of 5% or lower may be possible. A case was run assuming 5% interest rate for the capital investment. In this case, 100% of the capital was purchased with money borrowed at 5%. This case assumes that customer assets provide the collateral on the loan. 45
