LCOE

LCOE stands for Levelized Cost of Energy, a metric used to compare the costs of different energy generation technologies over their lifetime, representing the average revenue per unit of energy generated that would be required to recover the costs of building and operating a generating plant.

Why it’s in the news: It is in the news because Lazard's latest report shows that while renewables remain the cheapest energy source, their LCOE is rising due to factors like supply chain issues and higher interest rates.
