Onshore Wind: Consistently ranked as one of the cheapest sources of electricity, with operating costs that are stable and low. It is considered a key technology for reducing reliance on volatile fossil fuel markets.
Large-Scale Solar (Solar PV): Costs for solar have fallen dramatically (by as much as 88% since 2010), making large-scale solar farms highly competitive with wind.
Offshore Wind: Costs have fallen significantly, with recent Contracts for Difference (CfD) auctions showing prices that are increasingly competitive, especially for large-scale projects.
