Abstract
This paper presents calculations of the social cost of electricity gen eration from fossil fuels in Greece. The interest of these calculation s is that they allow a more realistic comparison between the actual pr ice of electricity and the electricity produced by renewable energy so urces, mainly wind and photovoltaic. The estimated social cost of ener gy was found to be in the range of 7.3-5.4 GRD.kWh(-1). (C) 1997 Elsev ier Science Ltd.
