Project ID P172548Region Middle east and north africaCommitment Amount Us 200.00 millionTotal Project Cost Us 200.00 millionProposed Development ObjectivesTo reduce air and climate pollutants from critical sectors in Greater Cairo. The project aims more specifically at reducing air emissions which is a key step toward the reduction of pollution concentrations and improvement of air quality. Air pollutants include PM10 and PM2.5 while climate pollutants known as Short-lived climate pollutants SLCP include CO2 or black carbon from vehicle emissions. Key Results From PCN The project will synchronize the indicators and the targets set in Egypts Sustainable Development Vision 2030 and in Egypt Takes Off work program and more specifically its Fifth Strategic Objective Improvement of the quality of life of the Egyptian Citizen. The project aims to achieve the following results For improved air quality monitoring management systems. An established and operational air quality decision support system For improved climate pollutant monitoring and management systems. In addition to the air quality monitoring system which also has benefits for the climate emissions monitoring system additional components specifically for climate pollution include setting up of a comprehensive emissions inventory and a comprehensive monitoring campaign for Short Lived Climate Pollutants including the detection of black carbon using total carbon analyzers. For improved air quality. Reduction of suspended particulate matter emissions on selected corridors and routes from targeted vehicles categories by X percent Reduction of suspended particulate matter emissions from open burning of solid waste by Y percent For reduced climate pollutants. Reduction of Short-Lived Climate Pollutants SLCPs reduction of black carbon emissions from urban mobility interventions by X percent reduction of ozone in from urban mobility interventions by Y percent reduction of methane by solid waste interventions by Z percent reductions in solid waste fires by Z percent which will lead to reductions in emissions by X percent. For improved SWM services. Increase in the percentage of solid waste safely disposed of in controlled landfills increase in percentage of recycled waste by Z percent.
