solar with battery cost breakdown in Norway 2030

Is solar power a viable option in Norway?

Norwegian hydropower is currently so cheap that power companies do not consider it attractive to build solar power plants in Norway. In recent years, however, companies have started selling or leasing solar systems to private customers and businesses in Norway. Despite the low energy prices, solar power is growing rapidly in Norway.

How will solar energy impact Norway?

Together with wind, solar energy will account for most of the replacement of fossil fuels. Norway is closely linked to the European energy market. Regardless of the growth of solar in Norway, the development in the EU will have consequences for Norwegians.

What will the future of battery technology look like in ?

By , total installed costs could fall between 50% and 60% (and battery cell costs by even more), driven by optimisation of manufacturing facilities, combined with better combinations and reduced use of materials. Battery lifetimes and performance will also keep improving, helping to reduce the cost of services delivered.

How much electricity does Norway produce in ?

In , Norway had an electricity production of 157 TWh, of which 91% was from hydropower, 8% from onshore wind, and <1% from thermal sources (NVE, 2021b). This shows that the Norwegian generation mix is already dominated by renewable energy. In normal weather years, Norway exports around 19 TWh of electricity to neighbouring countries.

Is solar PV a good option for the future Norwegian power market?

Solar PV has an average market value as low as 20 ± 3 €/MWh. Despite low LCOE estimates, solar PV does not look like an attractive option for the future Norwegian power market, given our model assumptions.

What is the power price in Norway in ?

The power price in Norway is modelled to be 39 ± 4 €/MWh. Market value of Norwegian hydropower is 34% higher than the average power price. Seasonal patterns for solar PV give <3% probability of revenues higher than the LCOE. On/offshore wind has a 50%/1% probability of having revenues higher than the LCOE.

We find that the investment costs in wind and solar power have a small positive impact on Norwegian power prices. Similarly, the cost of technologies that increase electricity consumption, such as heat pumps, have negative impacts.
