it's not that simple and never is. Solar panels operate at peak power for around one hour per day. Adding tracking is not cheap or trivial.
I regularly point out that those "prices" of renewable energy are predicated on a VERY important assumption - that the rest of the grid exists to deliver power when the renewable generators are not running. That has a cost and it not currently attributed to the source of the problem - the renewable generators. Rather, you and i pay that price.
