FY09 | Papers and Reports Published by ASTAE or through ASTAE-funded Initiatives

MONGOLIA - Household heating in ger areas of Ulaanbaatar is a large contributor to overall air pollution in the city. The use of coal in simple heating stoves releases high levels of particulate matter into the air, accounting for as much as 45-70% of the overall annual average particulate matter emissions in Ulaanbaatar. After a series of studies on the stove heating practices and preferences in ger households, it was concluded that it is possible to develop a program aiming to provide cleaner, affordable heating to ger areas in Ulaanbaatar, but there remain significant technical and financial barriers. The report provides detailed information on market or non-market based approaches, as well as policy recommendations, for switching to cleaner and more energy efficient heating stoves and cleaner fuels in ger households.
