The cheapest renewable power projects in the first half of 2022 were able to achieve an LCOE of $19/MWh, as in best-in-class onshore wind farms in Brazil, and $21/MWh for tracking PV farms in Chile, and $57/MWh for offshore wind in Denmark. The battery storage sector is particularly sensitive to commodity price volatility.

Even if electricity is produced from burning coal, the power plant is far away from population centers, transferred over power lines keeping any direct pollution away from the population. And the percentage of clean energy is growing every year as coal and gas plants are being replaced by renewable energy sources.
