Overview

The primary aim of the Auto Fuel Policy is to formulate measures that will help to reduce auto emissions and improve air quality. Improving air quality, where the health costs resulting from air pollution are considerable, is a compelling objective. A 1995 study (Carter Brandon and Kirsten Homman. 1995. The Cost of Inaction: Valuing the Economy-wide Cost of Environmental Degradation in India, presented at “Modelling Global Sustainability” Conference held at the United Nations University, Tokyo.) for instance, estimated the annual health costs resulting from urban air pollution in 36 cities to be in the range of a low of US $ 517 million (about Rs. 2500 crore) and a high of US $2102 million (about Rs. 10,000 crore). Average of the low and high values for the estimated environmental impacts in the above mentioned study ector wise were as follows: Health impacts of water pollution ($5,710 million, or 59% of the total); agricultural output loss due to soil degradation ($1,942 million, or 20%); health impacts of air pollution ($1310 million, or 14%); loss of livestock carrying capacity due to rangeland degradation $328 million, or 3%); the cost of deforestation ($214 million, or 2%); and loss of international tourism ($213 million, or 2%). A recent study (Ramaprasad Sengupta, Ashok Lahiri and Subrata Mandal. 2002. Saving on Health Cost from Implementation of Euro Norms in India.) entitled “Savings on Health Cost from Implementation of Euro Norms in India has provided estimates of health costs of auto emissions under different scenarios, i.e. pre-Euro, Euro II, Euro III and Euro IV emission based on study of 25 cities. According to the study annual health costs with pre-Euro specifications are estimated at Rs. 679 crore under the low cost scenario and Rs. 9,308 crore under the high cost scenario. Health costs under Euro II, Euro III and Euro IV scenario are evidently lower as a result of the improvement in vehicular technology and fuels. Savings on health costs, according to the study, are expected to be of the order of 86 per cent under Euro II, of 90 per cent under Euro III and upto 93 % under Euro IV over pre-Euro specifications. Upgrading auto fuel quality and vehicular technology to levels that are compatible with the emission norms as set out in Chapter 12, are crucial components in any strategy that aims at reducing auto emissions and improving air quality. Improving fuel quality entails investment in plants, and equipments in the refineries. Similarly, investments are needed to enable the automobile industry to produce vehicles that are compatible with the recommended emission norms.
