SUMMARY OF THE ADVISORY GROUP MEETING/WORKSHOP

1. INTRODUCTION

Interest is increasing in analysis of the full energy chain (1) (FENCH), for example 
in order to define externalities of various energy systems. Such assessments could 
also be considered to be a fair manner of comparing climate impacts from the 
production and use of different energies, e.g. comparing the greenhouse gas (GHG) 
emissions of fossil energies versus hydropower or nuclear energy versus renewable 
energies. Consideration of climate impacts, which can be attributed largely to energy 
production and use, is more and more underlying changes in energy policies (e.g. 
carbon taxation). The results of FENCH comparative assessments could play a role in 
energy planning, and related GHG assessments might have relevance for national 
energy planning according to commitments made by the more than one hundred 
countries that ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate 
Change (FCCC).
