The Italian photovoltaic market is since 2011 the world's largest and represents a success story having attained grid parity for the commercial and industrial (C&I) market of electricity. In this paper, the Levelized Cost Of Energy (LCOE) is calculated for three representative locations in Northern, Central, and Southern Italy, and compared with the C&I end-user electricity price. The grid parity is shown under certain conditions showing that the photovoltaic market is already ready to survive without the feed-in tariff mechanism.

Abstract
The Italian photovoltaic market is since 2011 the world's largest and represents a success story having attained grid parity for the commercial and industrial (C&I) market of electricity. In this paper, the Levelized Cost Of Energy (LCOE) is calculated for three representative locations in Northern, Central, and Southern Italy, and compared with the C&I end-user electricity price. The grid parity is shown under certain conditions showing that the photovoltaic market is already ready to survive without the feed-in tariff mechanism.Pubblicazioni consigliate
