- MIT traced 81 innovations behind a 99% drop in solar panel costs over 50 years, including many that originated outside the solar industry.
- Module cost reductions came from better tools and material quality, while BOS costs fell through design, automation, and standardization improvements.
- Innovations included both hardware and soft technologies like online permitting, faster construction processes, and enhanced collaboration.
- Findings provide guidance for renewable energy R&D investments and policy, highlighting areas to prioritize manufacturing and deployment growth, says MIT.
