The cost of a solar PV module make up the largest part of the total investment costs. As per the recent analysis of Solar Power Generation Costs in Japan 2021, module unit prices fell sharply. In 2018, the average price was close to 60,000 yen/kW, but by 2021 it is estimated at 30,000 yen/kW, so cost is reduced by almost half.
The notation kW/h for the kilowatt-hour is incorrect, as it denotes kilowatt per hour.

In electrical engineering the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. [1] It is a measure of the utilization rate, or efficiency of electrical energy usage; a high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load ...
The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is the average cost in currency per energy unit, for example, EUR per kilowatt-hour or AUD per megawatt-hour. [ 3 ] LCOE is defined by the formula: [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ]

The solar power initiative was inaugurated as the Meralco Terra Solar Project on November 21, 2024, in Barangay Callos, Peñaranda, [9] Nueva Ecija in a ceremony led by president Bongbong Marcos. [10] [11] [12] The first phase of the project covering 2,500 MW is expected to be complete by 2026. [13] The second phase by 2027. [14]
