Real-time Spatiotemporal Emission Mapping

South Asian countries, especially Pakistan and India, face severe air pollution, worsened by industrialization and vehicle emissions. Our project uses low-cost stationary and mobile sensors to provide a sustainable, affordable solution for monitoring air quality, addressing both spatial and temporal data challenges in urban areas.

Transition of Residential Gas Appliances from Natural Gas to Electricity

Pakistan's natural gas demand is projected to rise from 4,768 MMCFD in 2018 to 8,403 MMCFD by 2028, while reserves are rapidly depleting. Importing LNG is not feasible due to infrastructure and trade issues. Shifting residential natural gas use to electricity offers a potential solution, and a project aims to assess its feasibility and cost-effectiveness at both national and consumer levels.

Installation of the First Indoor Air Quality Monitor in Skardu

The installation of the first indoor air quality monitor in the 'Third Pole of the World' is a key advancement in environmental monitoring. It will provide real-time data on pollutants like PM2.5 and CO2, crucial for assessing indoor air quality and its impact on health. This data will aid research and support policy development for improving air quality in the region.

Capacity Building on Indoor Air Quality

The initiative targets poor indoor air quality in marginalized communities by introducing sustainable heating and cooking solutions and promoting education. It focuses on replacing harmful traditional cooking methods with clean technologies like efficient cookstoves and solar heaters. The program also emphasizes educating residents about air quality and proper use of these alternatives to improve health and create a healthier living environment.
