Outline  Background  A Breakdown of Components for Levelized Cost of Energy  Cost Estimate Uncertainties  Future Work

ICC: Initial Capacity Cost FCR: Fixed Charged Rate AOE: Annual Operation Expense AEP(net): Net Annual Energy Production Background Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) is a convenient way of comparing generation technologies on a common basis and is used throughout the utility industry as a high level screening tool.

Major Components to be included in the LCOE A Breakdown of Wind Turbine Costs Rotor Drivetrain, Nacelle Control, Safety system Tower components and Foundation Site preparation Mobilization, Assembly and Installation Balance of Station (BOS) o Electrical interface & connections o Communication system o Engineering & permits Annual Operating Expense (AOE) o Replacement cost o O&M cost o Land lease cost Overhead and profit
