Socio economic analysis of environmental optimisation of natural gas fired engines

Abstract

This report analyses budget and welfare costs associated with changing settings in a gas engine. The purpose is to analyse what it will cost the plant owner and society if one would change the engine settings in order to obtain lower NO{sub x} emissions. The plant owner will loose while society will gain wealth when aiming for lower NO{sub x} emissions. The loss for the plant owner is primary caused by taxes while the gain for society is caused by less health expenses. The report also analyses if placement have any effect for society; however, since the population density does not differ very much across Denmark this does not have any mayor effect. (Author)
