Solar energy is the most abundant, useful, efficient, and environmentally friendly source of renewable energy. In addition, in recent years, the capacity of photovoltaic electricity generation systems has increased exponentially throughout the world given an increase in the economic viability and reliability of photovoltaic systems. Moreover, many studies state that photovoltaic power systems will play a key role in electricity generation in the future. When first produced, photovoltaic systems had short lifetimes. Currently, through development, the technology lifecycle of photovoltaic systems has increased to 20–25 years. Studies showed that photovoltaic systems would be broadly used in the future, a conclusion reached by considering the rapidly decreasing cost of photovoltaic systems. Because price analysis is very important for energy marketing, in this study, a review of the cost potential factors on photovoltaic panels is realized and the expected cost potential of photovoltaic systems is examined considering numerous studies.

The current project costs of wind and solar energy use have been compared with traditional power sources and the economic viability of the investment has been estimated. The most economically viable investment is a wind power plant but it does not guarantee a continuous energy supply throughout the year. Therefore a hybrid plant has been proposed as an investment economically viable.

This study aimed at the dimensioning and economic analysis of grid-connected photovoltaic systems in different cities in Brazil. As a criterion for the selection of the cities of interest, it was considered the capital with the highest number of residences in each of the five regions of the country, as well as the city where the authors are established, namely the cities of Salvador, Manaus, Goiânia, São Paulo, Curitiba, and Cascavel. Based on local characteristics and adopting an average monthly electricity consumption of 400 kWh, was developed the dimensioning of the photovoltaic systems, adopting the methodology presented by Pinho and Galdino (2014). Based on the components determined for the systems, budgets were made to enable their implementation. The investments to be made varied between US$ 4,682.97 and US$ 5,326.06. From these values, economic analyses were made using the discounted payback method. The projects presented different payback times, with the shortest payback time to the city of Manaus, with 9 years and the longest in the city of Curitiba, with 15 years. Therefore, it was confirmed the research hypothesis that the regional characteristics linked to the dimensioning of the photovoltaic systems directly affect the time of return on investment.
