Avoidable Transmission Cost is a Substantial Benefit of Solar PV

Abstract

The cost burden of new large-scale transmission projects is exacerbated when low-capacity-factor generation, such as wind and solar, requires new dedicated lines. Solar PV at sufficiently large scale avoids expensive incremental transmission because it can be located at the load center.
