Question:

How do people price solar cells? Is it based on a specific way of calculating the cost of solar cells?

How do people price solar cells? Is it based on a specific way of calculating the cost of solar cells?

Answer:

Here is an example of doing the calculation, just for your reference: According to the same calculation method, 10 kilowatts of distributed photovoltaic power generation equipment to recover the cost of 9-10 years. Home photovoltaic power plant to recover the cost of the average period between 8-10 years.
Mostly the cost of solar cells goes to the installation, construction and maintenance. Therefore the price would be higher than what we expected.
The pricing of solar cells is based on it's material used to made it, the cost of building it and maintaining it. In fact, it doesn't cost much ever after every installation of solar cells system is done.
The solar cells price is high, because it will take at least 8 years to recover the cost of a the solar cell power supply system.
According to our calculation the solar power cost around US$230 per square meter is it can generate 120W power supply per square meter.
