December 16, 2020
| Air
The overall objective of the consultancy services is to facilitate GIZ and the project partners to take a decision on the scope of application of environmental technologies for reduction of air pollution.
Specific objectives of the consultancy services are to:
(a) collect information on the state of affairs concerning various relevant Work Packages of the project in the three selected cities;
Scoping study to identify SLCP mitigation opportunities in India
October 1, 2020
| Environment
| Air
This application proposes the development of a report providing an overview of SLCP (short-lived climate pollutant) mitigation measures in India and mapping key stakeholders.
Quantitative assessment of air pollution and climate change policy challenges
August 1, 2020
| Air
The objective of the project is to provide energy, air pollution and GHG emissions modelling results and calculations for India. The Deliverable includes but is not limited to: Policy scope - independent quantitative analysis and modelling analysis will cover the following areas within the IEA scope of work: Transport electrification and power sector clean energy transition; Energy efficiency air pollution and climate co-benefits; Clean cooking air pollution and climate co-benefits.
Carrying out Source Apportionment and Emission Inventory study for Kashipur City, Uttarakhand
June 24, 2020
| Air
The main objectives of this study are to: • Profile ground level concentration of air pollutants in different parts of the city; • Select emission factors for different categories of vehicles with due consideration to variations for fuel quality, technology, size and vintage of sources, control systems, etc; • Select appropriate emission factors for other non-vehicular sources viz. industries, industrial and domestic fuel combustions, roadside dust, construction activities, generator sets, etc;
Clean Air Project India
November 1, 2019
| Air
Air pollution is a global concern contributing to a wide range of health risks. According to the World Health Organisation data, around 7 million people die worldwide every year from exposure to the polluted air. More than 80% of people living in urban areas are exposed to concentrations higher than the level recommended by the WHO. India is one of the countries that are severely affected by air pollution. More than half of the world's twenty most polluted cities are located in India.
Air Pollution Source Apportionment Study at Kanhia Open Cast Coal Mine Area, Odisha
December 27, 2017
| Air
Kaniha Open Cast Coal mine is located in Talcher coalfields of Odisha in the District Angul and is being operated by Mahanadi Coalfields Limited, which is a subsidiary of Coal India Limited. Mining Lease Area of the Kaniha Opencast Coal mine is 718 ha with production capacity of 14 million ton per annum.
Assessing the co-benefits of a low carbon development pathway for India
December 27, 2017
| Air
The objective of the project is to estimate co-benefits of the GHG mitigation strategies on air quality, human health and agricultural productivity. This calls for the following: a) Preparation of high-resolution emission inventory based on energy modelling results of the MARKAL/TIMES model for the policy scenarios developed under the on-going WRI/TERI study. b) Carrying out meteorological and air quality simulations to predict Particulate Matter (PM) and Ozone concentrations across the study domain for current and future time scales
Spatially Resolved Air Pollution Emissions Inventory of India
December 27, 2017
| Air
Considering India's dynamically changing energy use landscape and recent policy interventions to improve air quality, there is a need to update air pollution emission inventories
Strengthening evidence-based advocacy for influenza prevention and control in India
December 27, 2017
| Air
This is an evidence- based study involving air quality assessment in the household environment. TERI’s role in this study is to provide aid in the monitoring of particulate matter (PM2.5) at the household level. This project will cover air quality assessment of around 50 households in the village belt of Ballabhgarh Tehsil of Faridabad district in Haryana. This is to check the association of the exposure of particulate matter mainly PM2.5 with human health.
