Ulaanbaatar Clean Air Project

closed

The development objective of the Ulaanbaatar Clean Air Project is to enable consumers in Ger areas to access heating appliances producing less particulate matter emissions and to further develop selected medium-term particulate matter abatement measures in Ulaanbaatar in coordination with development partners. There are three components to the project. The first component of the project is Ger area particulate matter mitigation. The second component of the project is particulate matter mitigation in Central Ulaanbaatar. This component has four sub-components as: 1) mitigation of fugitive dust from lack of city greening; 2) mitigation of dust from power plant emissions and ash ponds; 3) district heating feasibility study and knowledge building; and 4) affordable housing policy technical assistance. The third component of the project is public awareness raising, program coordination and project management.
