They are both the same thing. Solar panels is just another name for PV or photovoltaic panels.

As for the price, you have to do research in your local area, as prices differ all over the world. Solar panels are getting cheaper every year, with the price for large quantities in July 2012 at less than US$0.70 per watt.
