LCOE calculator

Overview

This project is a Python-based tool for calculating the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) using data and methodology from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development/Nuclear Energy Agency (OECD/NEA).

The data used for this project is sourced from the IEA/OECD-NEA report titled "Projected Costs of Generating Electricity 2020," which provides comprehensive data on the projected costs of various electricity generation technologies.

Features

• Calculate the LCOE according to the above methodology
