Developing a Comprehensive Emission Inventory for Bengaluru

CAPS is developing an emissions inventory for Bengaluru by estimating the emissions load from different sectors contributing to air pollution and analysing the spatio-temporal distribution of the emissions load. The emission inventory will estimate emissions from various sources in the airshed area of Bengaluru (60 km X 60 km).  

The study has the following key objectives:

       1. Identification of pollution sources and various corresponding activities for every source in Bengaluru

       2. Determination of the sectoral emissions load share

       3. Grid-wise (1 km x 1 km grid) distribution of the emissions load over Bengaluru
