“ [...] PV cell makers Q-Cells AG and REC Group said they expect
a reduction in PV system costs by 40 percent from 2006 to 2010.
“With these cost reductions, many regions throughout the world
will soon reach grid parity - a point at which PV electricity costs
the same or less than power derived from the electrical grid. PV grid
parity is expected beginning 2012 in nations where sunshine is plentiful
and constant, and 2018 in areas of the world with adequate or medium
sun exposure.”
