Grid parity in solar PV refers to the point where the cost of generating electricity from solar power becomes equal to or less than the cost of buying power from the grid. In simpler terms, it's when solar energy becomes as affordable, or even cheaper than electricity produced from traditional sources like coal, natural gas, or nuclear power.
On the one hand, grid parity can promote technological progress in solar photovoltaic power generation, promote the reduction of solar photovoltaic power generation cost, and reduce the policy cost of solar photovoltaic power generation.

The results show that in the absence of subsidies, the price of PV power generation in all cities is lower than the price of grid electricity supply, and about 22 % of the cities can realize grid parity on the generation side.
Grid parity is significant because it marks the point where solar energy can compete with traditional energy sources without needing government subsidies or incentives. When solar PV reaches grid parity, it becomes a more attractive option for consumers, leading to increased adoption of solar power.
Energy storage has become an increasingly common component of utility-scale solar energy systems in the United States. Much of NREL's analysis for this market segment focuses on the grid impacts of solar-plus-storage systems, though costs and benefits are also frequently considered.
