City-level analysis of subsidy-free solar photovoltaic electricity price, profits and grid parity in China [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Although solar photovoltaic use grows rapidly in China, comparison with grid prices is difficult as photovoltaic electricity prices depend on local factors. Using prefecture-level data, Yan et al. find that 100% of user-side systems can achieve grid parity, while 22% can produce electricity cheaper than coal-based power plants.
