Under the Ghana Mini Grid and Solar Photovoltaic Net Metering Project, 12,000 net-metered solar PV systems will be installed for public institutions, small and medium-sized businesses, and selected households. The grant will be used to install capacities of up to 67.5 MW.
During Q1 2015, solar PV module prices continued declining by about 15% for crystalline modules and by a slower 4% for thin-film modules. Module prices stabilised during Q3 and Q4 2015, with crystalline modules increasing slightly. Thin-film module prices continued their downward trend and decreased 3% during Q2, Q3 and Q4 2015.
For the data available for sub-1 kW SHS in Africa, average costs are around USD 2/Amp-hour (Ah) for battery storage capacities of 20 Ah to 220 Ah. This translates into costs of USD 2.1 and USD 6.8/W for the battery and charge controllers, depending on the battery and SHS size combination.
Photovoltaic cost data between 1975 and 2003 has been taken from Nemet (2009), between 2004 and 2009 from Farmer & Lafond (2016), and since 2010 from IRENA. Prices from Nemet (2009) and Farmer & Lafond (2016) have been converted to 2024 US$ using the US GDP deflator, to account for the effects of inflation.
The PV modules themselves, as well as the lighting fixtures and wiring, average around 20% (USD 2.2/W) of the total installed costs together, soft costs for 22% (USD 2/W), other hardware for 21% (USD 2/W) and the charge controller for 7% (USD 0.7/W).
Already, there are several local and international players with African plants for the production and assembling of PV modules (e.g., in Algeria, Mozambique, South Africa, Tunisia and Kenya).21 In addition to the price reduction of the final product as
