Transport Emissions Evaluation Model for Projects (TEEMP)

TEEMP is a suite of excel-based, free-of-charge, suite of spreadsheet models and methods that can be used to evaluate the greenhouse gas (GHG), air pollution, and other impacts of many types of transportation projects. The TEEMP tools were initially developed by the Clean Air Initiative for Asian Cities (CAI-Asia) and Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP) for evaluating the em...

Manual for Calculating Greenhouse Gas Benefits of Global Environment Facility Transportation Projects

The primary purpose of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) is to generate global environmental benefit. The essential path for achieving this goal is the financial support of projects whose completion delivers substantial, measurable reductions in greenhouse gases (GHG). This effort is a collaboration between the GEF and those applicants proposing projects designed to yield these benefits. This ...

International Vehicle Emissions (IVE) model

The International Vehicle Emissions (IVE) Model is a computer model designed to estimate emissions from motor vehicles. The model is intended to help cities and regions develop emissions estimates to: • Focus control strategies and transportation planning on those that are most effective; • Predict how different strategies will effect local emissions; and • Measure progress in reducing emissions o...

GAINS Model

The Greenhouse Gas - Air Pollution and Synergies Model (GAINS) explores cost-effective emission control strategies that simultaneously tackle local air quality and greenhouse gases so as to maximize benefits at all scales. GAINS provides an authoritative framework for assessing strategies that reduce emissions of multiple air pollutants and greenhouse gases at least costs, and minimize their negat...

TM5-Fast Scenario Screening Tool (TM5-FASST)

The TM5-FASST tool, developed at JRC Ispra (Italy), allows to evaluate how air pollutant emissions affect large scale pollutant concentrations and their impact on human health (mortality, years of life lost) and crop yield. The tool is specifically designed to compare a scenario (policy case) with a counterfactual case (baseline). The target policy domains are national to regional air quality poli...

Health impact assessment of air pollution: introductory manual to AirQ+

AirQ+ is a software tool for quantifying the health burden and impact of air pollution developed by the WHO Regional Office for Europe. AirQ+ includes methodologies to assess the impacts of short- and long-term exposure to ambient air pollution. The main methodologies use evidence generated by epidemiological cohort studies showing a relationship between average long-term air pollution concentrati...
