PV economics beyond the capture price: curtailment, negative-price exposure and realized value per MWh.
Capture price against realized value per MWh for PV
Answers: Why does a PV plant with a good capture price still underperform on realized value per MWh?
Two different things are happening to solar economics at once: a market-wide compression of capture price that no operator can dispatch around, and a portfolio-specific gap between capture price and realized value that is addressable. Telling them apart is the first step to fixing the right one.
