Renewables have become the lowest-cost source of power generation. By 2030, the global weighted average levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for solar photovoltaics is expected to have a 58 percent reduction from 2018. The other cost-competitive source of renewable energy was offshore wind with its technological improvements in recent years.
