Typical system prices and monthly energy production for 1 kWp, in Saint Lucia, range from US$3000 to US$4500 and around 125kWh. Prices for solar PV systems are constantly dropping. Note: PV system sizes are given in kWp, i.e. kilowatt peak..
In my opinion, solar power in Saint Lucia remains in the hands of those who can make a large investment in the long term. For those who at some points cannot even afford the cost of electricity services, investing a large sum into solar panels is not a possibility, even though in the long term it will be consistently cheaper than traditional . .
solar farm. The 14,900 photovoltaic panels on the now-complete energy production facility generate enough electricity for nearly 3,500 homes while offsetting over 3,800 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, already saving $16 million for consumers. The solar farm is historic for St. Lucia as the first utility-scale.
With economies of scale, and the potential for new domestic solar manufacturing facilities, the solar panels themselves will become cheaper and easier to ship -- addressing some of the . [pdf]
