Condensation on windows is a problem for many homeowners, and it can occur in all types of buildings. Singled-glazed windows are a primary cause of condensation, though many modern day double-glazed windows do condensate. This is usually due to poor manufacturing and inadequate installation.
To put this in context, construction of a 500 MW power plant for the different energy sources would cost around: 1  $1.8 billion for a solar power plant. 2  $1.5 billion for a typical coal plant. 3  $2.6 billion for a coal plant with CCS. 4  $482 million for a natural gas plant.
Generally, Solar PV systems that generate electricity from sunlight cost between $2.50 to $7 per installed watt. Typically, the larger the system, the lower price per watt.Large commercial systems are typically well below $4 per watt.Residential systems, because of their smaller size are usually somewhat higher. For example, in Ohio a 5 kW residential system with an average monthly production of about 530 kWh would cost approximately $19,000 or about $3.77 per watt.Larger systems have a significantly lower cost per watt.or example, in Ohio a 5 kW residential system with an average monthly production of about 530 kWh would cost approximately $19,000 or about $3.77 per watt.
