Evaluating the causes of cost reduction in photovoltaic modules
In attributing PV''s cost decline to particular causes, we draw a distinction between low-level causes (or mechanisms) and high-level causes (or mechanisms). Low-level mechanisms explain cost reduction in terms of changes to variables of a cost model, representing measurable and technology-specific determinants of cost (e.g. wafer area).
