Solar energy is now the world's cheapest source of power, study finds

Solar energy has become the world’s most affordable power source

Solar power became the most affordable energy source between 2021 and 2025, with costs dropping below coal and natural gas in most regions.

Solar energy is now the world's cheapest source of power, study finds

Solar energy is now so cost-effective that, in the sunniest countries, it costs as little as £0.02 to produce one unit of power, making it cheaper than electricity generated from coal, gas or wind, according to a new study from the University of Surrey.

A study from the University of Surrey shows solar power is now the cheapest form of energy.

They’ve found it’s cheaper than coal, gas, or wind in many countries. Falling battery costs mean solar can store energy and supply power when it’s needed, making it more reliable. Researchers say new solar technologies and smarter electricity networks could make it easier for the world to switch to clean energy.
