Chapter Chapter 11 in Project Analysis in Developing Countries, 2023, pp 319-366 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter addresses how the environmental effects of projects can be incorporated in project analysis. It begins by briefly discussing the basis for environmental values used in project economics before explaining the main approaches in the literature for putting numerical values on these effects. These values need to be incorporated in a project resource statement and like other effects in the future need to be given a value in the present. How to discount environmental effects has been a topic of considerable debate and the chapter reviews the main alternatives for doing so.
