The final average price for the PV technology came in at €0.056 ($0.065)/kWh, while the average price for hydropower was €0.158/kWh. The Croatian authorities initially reviewed 144 projects totaling 713 MW for the auction. The tender was carried out in two phases. [pdf]
Photovoltaic cells, integrated into solar panels, allow electricity to be generated by harnessing the sunlight. These panels are installed on roofs, building surfaces, and land, providing energy to both homes and industries and even large installations, such as a large-scale solar power plant. [pdf]

Here is the setup of a solar panel:Every solar panel is comprised of PV cells, connected in series. Most common solar panels include 32 cells, 36 cells, 48 cells, 60 cells, 72 cells, or 96 cells.Each PV cell produces anywhere between 0.5V and 0.6V, according to Wikipedia; this is known as Open-Circuit Voltage or V OC for short. . All the PV cells in all solar panels have the same 0.58V voltage. . [pdf]
