Abstract
An evaluation is made of the environmental effects of the fuel-peat chain in terms of their monetary costs to society. The fuel-peat chain is based on a 60/120 MW peat-fuel power plant. The plant generates heat and electricity 1080 GWh/year and uses 1,367 mill. m{sup 3} of peat and 2227 tons of oil annually. Environmental costs are estimated to be about 8,8 mill. FIM/year or 8 FIM/MWh. Greenhouse gases accounted for 70 % of environmental costs. Estimated environmental costs are 15 % of fuel costs. Some effects particularly characteristic to fuel-peat, like the effects of peat-dust and noise, aesthetic impacts of peat production sites and adverse effects to reindeer management have not been included
