Impacts of reducing air pollutants and CO₂ emissions in urban road transport through 2035 in Chongqing, China.

ABSTRACT: The road transport sector in megacities is confronted with pressing local air pollution and carbon dioxide (CO₂) control issues. To determine effective policy instruments for saving energy and the co-control of air pollutants and CO₂, several mainstream measures were examined and compared in Chongqing's road transport sector from 2017 to 2035. An integration assessment framework was developed by combining the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) system and a set of quantitative methods for evaluating the co-benefits of emission reductions (including the air pollutant equivalent (AP_eq), co-control coordinate system, and pollutant reduction cross-elasticity (Els_a/b)). Results showed that the shifting transportation modes scenario presente
