Primary energy from renewable energy options, electricitygeneration and generating capacity from renewable energy options.(b) National and International Data Availability: Data on energy supply by fuel areavailable from national statistical offices and country publications, and from variousinternational sources, such as the International <strong>Energy</strong> Agency (IEA), the World Bankand Eurostat.REFERENCES• EEA, 2002. <strong>Energy</strong> and Environment in the European Union.

Also, prices can affectaf<strong>for</strong>dability.(b) Relevance to <strong>Sustainable</strong> <strong>Development</strong>: <strong>Energy</strong> prices can be regulated tointernalize environmental and social costs, to manage demand and to encouragedevelopment of alternative renewable energy options.For developing countries, there is a need to increase energy availability andaf<strong>for</strong>dability, in particular <strong>for</strong> the lower-income groups of the population, so as toimprove social and economic development. At the same time, efficient energy use indeveloping and developed countries is a major priority. Appropriate pricingmechanisms may be used to overcome inefficiencies.(c) International Conventions and Agreements: None.(d) International Targets/Recommended Standards: No international targets havebeen established. However, it is widely accepted that external costs of energyproduction and use should be internalized. Furthermore, the Johannesburg Plan ofImplementation agreed at the World Summit on <strong>Sustainable</strong> <strong>Development</strong> calls <strong>for</strong> aphasing-out of environmentally harmful subsidies.(e) Linkages to Other <strong>Indicators</strong>: Related indicators of the economic dimension areannual energy use per capita, intensity of energy use, energy mix and emissions ofgreenhouse gases. This indicator is also linked to social indicators such as share ofhousehold income spent on fuel and electricity.METHODOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION(a) Underlying Definitions and Concepts: This indicator reflects the actual pricepaid by final consumers <strong>for</strong> various energy services. Prices should include all regularcharges linked to the supply of energy to the customer. For example, <strong>for</strong> electricityand gas, the data should include not only the price per kilowatt-hour (kWh) or cubicmetre, but also any standing charges and meter rental charges. Initial charges <strong>for</strong>79
