Kh.Nyambaatar: 50,000 households will switch to gas next year www.gogo.mn
Mayor Kh.Nyambaatar said the capital city plans to switch 50,000 households to gas next year as part of measures to reduce air pollution.
Within this year’s programme, 5,000 households in Bayangol and Chingeltei districts will be switched to gas and 33 gas filling points established. As of today, 905 households have already been converted and 15 gas filling points are operating; on average 90–100 households are being switched daily, the mayor said during an inspection of the 13th sub-district, Chingeltei district.
Mayor Kh.Nyambaatar said the capital city will also insulate 5,000 homes this year and, where households carry out their own insulation, the capital city will install gas equipment free of charge. Each household will receive two gas cylinders so one can be used while the other is refilled. The capital will also provide a subsidy of MNT 900,000 for households using gas during the heating season, for example, if a household uses MNT 2,000,000 of gas in winter, the city will cover MNT 900,000.
Local residents reported positive experiences. D.Tsolmon, a resident of 13th sub-district, said switching to gas “does not cause fires, produces no smoke or soot, keeps indoor temperature even, and includes a stovetop for cooking. Installers gave good instructions. For the first two months we get a discounted price: one cylinder costs MNT 39,000 and lasts 3–4 days, so two cylinders a week are typically enough.”
Governor of 13th sub-district G.Enkhtugs said more than 400 households in the sub-district have been insulated (191 gers, 297 houses) and 90 households have already switched to gas. He added that nearby filling stations keep turnaround low, a refill takes 1–2 minutes.
The Mayor also said this year’s roll-out focuses on Chingeltei and Bayangol districts, with Songinokhairkhan and Sukhbaatar districts scheduled for inclusion next year. He also noted he is temporarily using semi-coke and gas fuel, reiterating the long-term goal to free up land in ger districts and provide housing as part of pollution-reduction efforts.
