The Green Development Committee of the Citizens’ Representatives Khural of the Capital City convened a meeting at the eastern plant of the “Tavantolgoi Tulsh” LLC.
The meeting reviewed the preparations for supplying over 170,000 households in Ulaanbaatar with semi-coke smokeless briquettes and transitioning 5,000 households to gas fuel. Officials discussed matters related to fuel distribution, supply, pricing, storage, and household access to coal, seeking detailed clarifications from the company. During the heating season, coal will be sold at 382 distribution points across the capital, and residents can purchase fuel using digital cards through the “Hotula” mobile application.
Director of “Tavantolgoi Tulsh” LLC, Ts. Erdenebayar, said, “Studies show that coal smoke accounts for 55 percent of Ulaanbaatar’s air pollution. We estimate that the use of semi-coke briquettes will reduce emissions by 25–28 percent. The preliminary price is set at MNT 3,750 per bag for compressed briquettes and MNT 5,000 for semi-coke fuel.”
It is worth noting that the sale of semi-coke briquettes, originally planned to begin on October 1, 2025, has been postponed pending a decision by the National Committee.
