Two-wheelers contribute 20 per cent, whereas three-wheelers contribute less than 5 per cent of transport emissions. Currently, almost half of the three-wheelers are already non-fossil fuel, so their contribution is not 17-20 per cent as estimated by earlier studies, including the one by TERI in 2018.

Read moreHeavy-duty trucks entering Delhi from other states are responsible for nearly a quarter of transport-related pollution in the Capital despite being allowed inside the city only during restricted hours each day, according to a new study by the Air Pollution Action Group (A-PAG), Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi and TERI.
Read moreA study by TERI, IIT Delhi, and the Air Pollution Action Group (A-PAG) found that heavy-duty trucks account for 23% of Delhi's transport-related PM2.5 emissions, with their contribution rising to 61% during early morning and nighttime hours.
Read moreDelhi's truck pollution problem is no longer driven primarily by ageing diesel vehicles merely passing through the city, but by an increasingly regional freight network, according to a joint study by the Air Pollution Action Group (A-PAG), IIT Delhi, and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI).
Read moreMr Sharif Qamar, Associate Director, Transport and Urban Governance Division, TERI stated that, with transport contributing about 25% of Delhi's winter air pollution, the electrification of the city's predominantly two-wheeler fleet could substantially reduce vehicular emissions.
Read moreBrick kilns accounted for an average 8% of the total PM2.5 emissions by all industries in the region during the winter season, according to a 2016-17 study for Delhi-NCR conducted by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI).
Read moreAs per the report on “Source Apportionment of Particulate Matter (PM 2.5 and PM 10) in the NCR” prepared by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), published in August 2018, the transport sector contributes 14 per cent of PM 2.5, 40 per cent of Carbon Monoxide (CO), and 63 per cent of Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions in the Delhi-NCR.
Read moreAccording to a study by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) and the Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), the transport sector contributes 14 per cent of PM2.5 emissions, 40 per cent of carbon monoxide emissions and 63 per cent of nitrogen oxide emissions in Delhi-NCR.
Read moreAccording the report prepared by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), the sector contributes 14 per cent of PM 2.5, 40 per cent of carbon monoxide (CO), and 63 per cent of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions in the Delhi-NCR.
Read moreA study by The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) highlighted that cycling offers significant benefits, including zero dependence on fuel, zero pollution and improved health. It also provides an affordable mobility option for people seeking access to livelihoods, education and other essential services.
Read moreThere have been efforts to identify pollution sources by institutions like Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), IIT Kanpur, The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) and others in the last two decades. Institutions like ARAI, Pune, IIT Deļhi, TERI and IITM have been tasked to develop a new EI and SA for Delhi- NCR with 2026 as base year.
