A full update of all costs was not done for the 2011 edition but will be done in 2012. In particular, a number of new publications in 2011 provide new cost data, which will be synthesized with expert estimation for the next edition. All costs in this table are indicative economic costs, levelized, and exclusive of subsidies or policy incentives. Typical energy costs are under best conditions, including system design, siting, and resource availability. Optimal conditions can yield lower costs, and less favorable conditions can yield substantially higher costs. Costs of off-grid hybrid power systems that employ renewables depend strongly on system size, location, and associated items such as diesel backup and battery storage. Costs for solar PV vary by latitude and amount of solar insolation. Costs for biomass power depend on type of biomass resource. Source: Data compiled from a variety of sources, including NREL, World Bank, IEA, and various IEA implementing agreements. Many current estimates are unpublished. Historically, no single published source has provided a comprehensive or authoritative view on the costs of all technolo- gies, although recent sources in 2011 are more comprehensive. For further cost references, see IPCC, Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation, May 2011, at http://srren.ipcc-wg3.de/; World Bank/ESMAP, Technical and Economic Assessment: Off Grid, Mini- Grid and Grid Electrification Technologies (Washington, DC: 2007); and IEA, Deploying Renewables: Principles for Effective Policies (Paris: 2008).
