Analysis of costs and benefits. Economic Low level of competition. The payments cover between 10 per cent and 25 per cent of the MCL’s annual operating costs. In return, the HEP is guaranteed maintenance of the current level of environmental service (as the area is already protected, there is no expectation of increased environmental service). The payment scheme however, has been the means for resolving a land ownership dispute and enabling the La Manguera to build the dam and water intake on land claimed by both the company and the MCL but in the possession of the MCL. The company treats PES costs as O&M cost (roughly US$30,000 from a total of US$140,000). It is a considerable additional cost for the hydropower project, representing a 21 per cent increase in annual O&M costs. The company has a cap on the sales price of electricity and therefore cannot pass on the bill to final users. This HEP invests US$5 per kilowatt per year while the others that deal through FONAFIFO ultimately invest less than US$ 1.5 per kilowatt per year (Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2002). By 2010, payments for environmental services represent about 50 per cent of the MCL’s budget, originating from different sources. Besides the initial agreement with LEHP, payments also come from the Costa Rican National scheme of Payments for Environmental Services (PSA), and a deal for another hydroelectric plan (El Encanto Hydroelectric Project, CNFL). In 2009 the MCL signed another cooperation agreement with the company CONELECTRICAS to solve disputes over water flows. The deal includes a direct payment of approximately US$400,000.00 over 18 years, and would indirectly facilitate access to approximately US $ 1,179,840.29 over the next 38 years (TEEBCase Xxxxxx, 2010).The LEHP-MCL PES scheme has resulted in a 21 per cent increase in the operational and management costs of the LEHP, which has resulted in a significant contribution to the annual budget of the MCL in an amount that accounts for approximately 10-25 percent of the annual budget. However, being perceived as financially contributing to conserve tropical rain forest has boosted LEHP’s public image, as negotiations between LEHP and MCL took place during a period where communities in Costa Rica were very vocal about their opposition to private hydropower projects.‌‌‌‌ Environmental Payments are used to help protect the cloud forests in Monteverde that are host to a large variety of flora and fauna.
