city Result, Bangalore is emerging as one of the more polluted
cities in India. Also, Respiratory diseases are on the rise.
Future Public transport ?
With the high growth of vehicular traffic (8%) and resulting pollution levels the state government has been trying to develop a strategy for mass transport system
The state government has set up a company to look out for various options for mass transport and is even collecting revenue through cess on petrol & diesel
This year the government of Karnataka and the Indian government have signed an MOU to setup a metro rail project on the lines of “Metro Rail” presently being executed in Delhi by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC)
DMRC is been also given the additional charge to execute the Bangalore metro rail project

CDM Potential (Cont.)
Total petrol consumption per month in Bangalore 18000 KL per month Total diesel consumption per month in Bangalore 15000 KL per month
CO2 Emissions per Liter of petrol burnt 2.2 Kg per Litre
CO2 Emissions per Liter of Diesel burnt 3.2 Kg per Litre
Base line CO2 emissions in Bangalore 1.05 Million Ton /annum
CDM money expected @ $ 3 per ton of CO2 abated
For 50 % abatement 72.5 Million Rs per annum
Financing Issues & CDM
Government of Karnataka contribution - 74 Crores A special purpose vehicle (SPV) will be set up to raise funds
(Finance corporations, Foreign Banks) Financing is a Major issue for implementation of the metro
rail project Past experience in many countries shows the system is
heavily subsidised by the government Under this circumstances, CDM option can be looked upon
for assisting the financing, since the project has vast savings in emissions & fuel consumption
