Samenvatting:
The standardised method for calculating the costs of environmentalmeasures in the Netherlands has been updated in 1998 (see report: 'Costs and
benefits in environmental policy, definitions and computational methods').
One of the updates is the incorporation of selected savings measures,
including sustainable options, in end-use sectors. The costs of saving
measures are partly or wholly compensated by the benefits, in the form of
lower expenses for energy carriers. The cost/benefit ratio is used, among
other criteria, to depict a saving measure as an environmental measure. This
report describes how to find figures for costs, savings and penetration
growth of saving measures, how to select them and how to calculate the total
environmental costs of these saving measures. Another question to be answered
encompasses the costs and benefits of all saving measures, including that of
non-environmental saving measures. Finally, an outline for a structural
monitoring activity in this field is given. For the household and service
sectors a quantitative analysis for the year 1998 has resulted in an overview
of the costs and benefits per saving measure, the total environmental costs
and the total costs and benefits of all saving measures. A spreadsheet with
all figures and calculations has been drawn up. For the industry and
agriculture sectors a qualitative analysis has resulted in guidelines how to
modify the existing survey on environmental costs, to get figures on costs
and benefits of saving measures. The Central Bureau of Statistics in the
Netherlands will execute the new survey. During the analysis a number of
problems has been encountered in finding data, selecting measures and
calculating total costs. To cope with these problems, a number of general
long term actions and a number of specific short term measures has been
proposed in a so called plan of action as an aid to future activities. 50
