    Reported prices for PV systems vary widely and depend on a variety of factors including system size, location, customer type, connection to an electricity grid, technical specifications, and the extent to which end-user prices reflect the real costs of all the components. System prices in these segments can vary widely, both from local labour and material costs but also given the inherent constraints specific to the sites used. There is no standardised reporting on these subjects across incorporate IEA PVPS countries.

  • Economic Viability of PV-BESS Systems under Time-of-Use Pricing and Price Caps: A Multi-Location Study in Vietnam (2026) · International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy · doi

    The economic viability of PV-BESS systems remains highly uncertain under current electricity pricing mechanisms. - There is a lack of studies that evaluate the performance of PV-BESS systems under time-of-use pricing and price caps. - The impact of transmission constraints and pricing mechanisms on the economic viability of PV-BESS systems is not well understood.

  • Economic Viability of PV-BESS Systems under Time-of-Use Pricing and Price Caps: A Multi-Location Study in Vietnam (2026) · International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy · doi

    Future studies should consider other factors that may affect the economic viability of PV-BESS systems, such as technology costs and market structures. - The study suggests that additional research is needed to design effective pricing mechanisms and compensation schemes for PV-BESS systems. - Future studies should evaluate the performance of PV-BESS systems in different locations and under different pricing mechanisms.
