Lazard LCOE dataset shows solar costs slashed 93% to $24/MWh by 2023
The Lazard LCOE dataset tracks unsubsidized levelized cost of energy for seven generation technologies from 2008 to 2023. Utility‑scale solar PV fell from $359/MWh in 2010 to $24/MWh in 2023—a 93% cost collapse—making solar cheaper than coal or nuclear. The CSV download and API make the data easy to explore.
