“…The first one is entrepreneurship which we find particularly relevant for the Spanish situation where the current legal framework provides adequate incentives since the new legislation regulating solar energy for self-consumption was introduced in 2019 (Royal Decree 244-2019) [42]. The conditions can be similar to those of other countries where rooftop PV facilities for industrial self-consumption are clear drivers of entrepreneurial activities, as we have detected in recent scientific literature [43][44][45]. The second topic relates to technological innovation, which also offers the possibility of optimizing electricity production within the limitations of the available resource.…”

This article has been developed to assess the economic feasibility of a rooftop photovoltaic installation of industrial self-consumption. Numerical models that enable an interested person to obtain the main expected parameters will be generated, with those models being the article’s main contribution to the field. To do this, a calculation methodology will be developed through which the reader, knowing the location of the facility and dimensions of the roof, will be able to calculate the maximum installable power, the main parameters related to production, the cost of the installation, and the LCOE of the plant. The use of actual costs will be facilitated in case they are known. Still, it will remain possible to apply the major equipment costs (modules, inverter, and structure) considered throughout the article. This developed calculation methodology will also allow a quick comparison of the forecasts of production, CAPEX, and LCOE of plants designed with different inclinations and different types of modules. Consequently, it will be especially useful in decision-making before developing the plant’s basic engineering. Moreover, the calculations used for modeling the LCOE will be analyzed in depth. This analysis will allow evaluating how the different technical variables affect the profitability of a photovoltaic installation, such as the selected tilt, the location, the module’s technology, or the available area.

“…The reduction of institutional transaction costs is an important mechanism of administrative approval reform to affect enterprise productivity [17]. Using a sample of 19 OECD countries, Aldieri et al found that the quality of institutions is crucial to enhance employment [18]. Business environment optimization and relaxation of government regulations can promote output growth [14].…”

The institutional environment is critical to economic growth. A favorable business environment can reduce unnecessary transaction costs. This study examined the impact of institutional friction costs on economic growth, based on panel data for 38 OECD countries from 2004 to 2020. The contribution of this paper is that, first, we explore methods to measure the cost of institutional friction, and the measurements show that the total cost of institutional friction tends to be lower in high-income countries than in upper-middle-income countries. Second, we find that reducing the cost of institutional friction helps to promote economic growth through an empirical fixed-effects analysis approach with panel data. The empirical results remain significant after robustness and endogeneity tests. Third, we find that the effect of institutional friction costs on economic growth is more pronounced in high-income countries and even more pronounced in countries with inefficient governments. Fourth, the mediation effect test finds that institutional friction costs affect economic growth by increasing firm innovation. Overall, reducing the costs of institutional friction helps promote economic growth, and this study suggests that policy makers in each country should develop measures to reduce the costs of institutional friction to improve efficiency and economic development.
