This report presents the results from Phase II of the Air Emissions Inventory Project. It is the first national air pollutant emission inventory carried out for the whole country. The emissions inventory shows that emissions from the stationary energy and transport sectors dominate the emission sources. For particulate matter, the dominant source is industrial processes and product use (IPPU). Although the agriculture and waste sectors have a minor contribution to the country’s overall emissions, their role is more significant in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. However, of particular note are the estimated high non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) emissions from municipal solid waste disposal on land.
In recent years a wide range of organisations have issued guidance on different aspects of strategic infrastructure planning and prioritisation. The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) reviewed this material and conducted interviews with practitioners from around the world. This report draws these insights together into a single source of guidance and illustrates them with a series of case studies.
This report analyses planned infrastructure projects, decision-making frameworks related to infrastructure development, and strategic planning documents in eight countries in Central Asia and the Caucasus: Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.
