Overview
Power Plant Tracker’s new module provides exclusive insights on both Capital Expenditure and Levelised Cost of Electricity:
LCOE – Analyse the evolution of Levelised Cost of Electricity by technology, and by country or region
- Definition:
The LCOE is a calculation used to compare the cost of electricity production among different technologies.
LCOE represents the aggregate of a power generation asset’s costs during its lifetime.
The cost is assumed to be constant throughout the years and is expressed in USD/MWh or EUR/MWh.

CAPEX – Analyse the evolution of overnight Capital Expenditure costs by technology and by country or region. Benchmark with your own projects’ costs.
- Definition:
Capital Expenditures, also called overnight costs, are the initial investment required to build a generating asset, i.e. the cost of investing in a power plant without taking into account the financial costs (interest rates) or the structure of financing (equity (WACC) vs. debt). The concept of overnight costs is common in energy economics.
