SO2 is the pollutant of concern for Jinan and Chongqing while PM10 is the pollutant getting lowest score for Hangzhou.

Index 2: Highlights ● Clean Air Management Capacity Index is the index with highest index for all the six cities, from good 23.83(Zhaoqing) to excellent 27.31 (Hangzhou). ● The gaps between cities exist due to their differentiated levels of development, local policy variations and disparity in policy enforcement . ● All the cities perform well in identification of mobile and stationary sources emissions, however, gaps remain in the following areas: 1. Identify toxics and harmful pollutants, Pb emission volume estimation and tracing of emission sources; 2. Estimate GHG emission volumes and estimate area sources emissions volumes; 3. Pb exposure monitoring and roadside monitoring station building; 4. Study the relationship between air pollution and tourism; 5. Urban epidemiological studies and studies on health impacts; and 6. Capacity to respond to climate change because environmental protection and climate change are regulated by two separate departments across China. Index 3: Clean Air Policies & Actions 30.00 25.00 4.02 Overall, all cities scored 4.06 3.03 2.39 20.00 similar in Clean Air 6.25 2.34 2.39 7.73 6.25 6.25 Policies and Actions 15.00 5.94 6.25 7.83 6.87 6.87 Jinan and Hangzhou are 10.00 7.18 5.78 6.01 Excellent while others 5.00 8.21 7.70 6.21 6.85 7.08 5.83 are in Good band 0.00 JINAN HANGZHOU CHONGQINGGUANGZHOU FOSHAN ZHAOQING Limited policies and Indicators of General Policies and Actions in Air Quality actions to address the Indicators of Clean Air Policies and Actions in Transport Sector Indicators of Clean Air Policies and Actions in Energy and Industry area pollution Indicators of Clean Air Policies and Actions for Other Sources Jinan Hangzhou Chongqing Guangzhou Foshan Zhaoqing 26.31 25.18 20.92 23.86 22.59 20.48 Index 3: Highlights ● For Clean Air Policies and Actions Index, the score is from good 20.92 (Chongqing) to excellent 26.31 (Hangzhou). ● This Index usually got the highest score among the three index in China cities according to the pilot assessment in 2008 and 2010, but this time the scores in this index all drop because the enforcement “discount” has been added in the CAMAT Version 3, which assesses whether clean air policies and actions are fully enforced in a city. ● Most of the indicators of clean air policies and actions in the applied cities got 3 or 4 which means the policies and actions are implemented and enforced well but not perfect.

The scores did not vary significantly from each other, which means these cities have: Majority of key components of clean air management are in place; Policies and actions to reduce emissions from identified major sources need to be enhanced; and Sector-based institutions need to upgrade technical and management capacity. Future Plan • Expanding pilots in Asia • Benchmarking • Linking with potential city twinning opportunities • Liking with intervention and investment plans ForFor more more information: information: www.cleanairasia.orgwww.cleanairasia.org Clean Air Asia Center [email protected] Unit 3505 Robinsons Equitable Tower ADB Avenue, Pasig City Metro Manila 1605 Philippines Clean Air Asia China Office Clean Air Asia India Office [email protected] [email protected] 901A Reignwood Building, 1st Floor, Building No. 4 No. 8 YongAnDongLi Thyagraj Nagar Market, Lodhi Colony Jianguomenwai Avenue Beijing New Delhi 110003 China India Clean Air Asia Country Networks China .
