Electricity Generation Cost
- $0.05 per kw/hr — the cost of electricity generated from coal (the dirtiest fossil fuel)
- $0.10 per kw/hr — the cost of electricity generated from gas (more expensive, but quite a bit better than coal)
- $0.16 per kw/hr — the cost of electricity generated from solar thermal (many people are working to beat this now)
- $0.24 per kw/hr — the cost of electricity generated from photovoltaic panels on large scale solar farms (many people are working to beat this too)
- $0.40 per kw/hr — the cost of electricity generated from photovoltaic panels on rooftops of homes and businesses
