The benefits to New Zealand would accrue in energy savings, and avoided carbon charges over the next 20 years with net present values of:
• | Energy Savings | $8.3 million |
• | Carbon emissions saved | $10.78 million |
The costs of such a scheme would be largely funded by retailers and consumers, and could cost $25,000 in administration per annum. The net present value of this at $525,000 is far less than any savings achieved.
It would be possible to introduce such a scheme by the end of 2006 if decisions and consultation begin as soon as possible.
