While calculating costs, several internal cost factors have to be considered. Note the use of "costs," which is not the actual selling price, since this can be affected by a variety of factors such as subsidies and taxes: • tend to be low for gas and oil ; moderate for onshore wind turbines and solar PV (photovoltaics); higher for coal plants and higher still for, and
