Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation
English term or phrase: per watt matters
We posit that only the cost per watt matters and low-cost technologies will dominate the broader competitive landscape long term. Furthermore, given the structure of the feed-in tariff programs, only the amount of energy produced matters for the vast majority of the market.
Susana Antón Remirez
Spanish translation:solo importa el costo por vatio
Explanation:
fijate que matters está como verbo.
