This law included recommendations for fuel and vehicle emissions standards, and UNEP subsequently supported the government in developing regulations for low sulphur fuels. Concurrent vehicle emission standards of Euro 5/IV or equivalent are still pending. Paraguay is now focusing on these standards as the next step to ensuring that all regulations are harmonized. This project responds to a request for technical expert assistance from the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (MADES) of Paraguay to support the development of a resolution to control and regulate short-lived climate pollutants as part of Law 5211/12 on Air Quality, and Resolution 609 for the control of vehicle emissions. Project reference: [PY-23-001t] Paraguay - Supporting the development of a resolution to reduce SLCPs from HDVEs. What we're doing At a minimum, the project will deliver: Development of a resolution to control and regulate Short-Lived Climate Pollutants as part of Law 5211/12 on Air Quality and Resolution 609 for the control of vehicle emissions.  Tags Regions Latin America and the Caribbean Pollutants (SLCPs) Black carbon Themes Heavy-duty vehicles and engines
