  This analysis was completed by combining local-level electricity prices by segmentfrom the U.S. Energy Information Association (EIA) with state-level irradiation data from NREL. The data were analyzed segment by segment, state by state, to determine the points at which the NPV of a solar PV investment becomes positive relative to the NPV of electricity purchases from the utility. This market-by-market approach is necessary because of the wide distribution of U.S. electricity prices ($0.01-$1.00/kWh) and the wide distribution of solar irradiation (1,200-2,400 kWh/m2).

  Counter to conventional wisdom, solar PV will increasingly come on-line in a distributed manner-i.e., on buildings and residences-Not supplied by utilities. This is because the price of electricity at retail is 2-3x higher than utility generation cost. As solar installation costs decrease, the cost of solar electricity will become competitive with retail price points first. Below $4 per watt, many businesses and residents will save money by installing solar PV on their properties. Over time, U.S. utilities will face a meaningful erosion of demand.
