“…Figure S3 shows the emission ranges for 2010 and 2015 inventories. These ranges of emission estimates indicate the uncertainty, which refers to the proportion of difference of low/high estimates and best estimates of emissions (presented in Equation [6]), as reported in other studies (L. N. Huy & Oanh, 2017; Permadi & Oanh, 2013; Roy et al, 2021).

Uncertainty ((), high or low) = \frac{High or low estimate - Best estimate}{Best estimate} \times 100 % .

“…In Vietnam, air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHGs) are emitted from wide‐ranging sources, including industrial processes, road transportation, solid waste disposal, domestic activities, and open biomass burning (Lasko, Vadrevu, & Nguyen, 2018; Popovicheva et al, 2017; Reddington et al, 2019; Roy, Lam, Ngo, Chan, & Fu, 2021). Among these sources, road transportation is considered one of the key contributors to the total emissions generated, particularly in large urban areas.…”

This study developed updated emission inventories for 2010, 2015, and 2019 baseyear for road transportation in Vietnam with future projections for 2020, 2025, and 2030. In general (2019 base-year), motorcycles contributed a substantial CO, NMVOC, PM 10 , PM 2.5 , OC, and CH 4 ($53%-89%), while BC, NOx, and SO 2 were mostly from diesel-powered trucks ($42%-76.3%). The countrywide emission contributions from two rapidly growing cities (Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh [HCM]) were estimated to be 11%-16.2% and 16.6%-20.2%, respectively, and CO 2 was found to be the leading pollutant that contributes to the overall Global Warming Potential (41% of CO 2 e) in Vietnam. In terms of future emission projections, the suggested or planned policy interventions (i.e., banning motorcycles, improved fuel quality, introducing electric vehicles, and public transportation) are expected to lead to 11%-125% (compared to Business As Usual) emission reductions in 2030, pushing Vietnam a step toward environmental sustainability.

“…There is not an output concentration standard listed for ozone or non-methane VOCs; proxy values for VOC emissions factors for combustion fuels are taken from Wei et al (2008). The emissions factors used in the referenced publication are designed for use in China, which is chosen due to its proximity to the ASEAN countries because emissions factors for these countries are not directly available for VOCs (Roy et al 2021). 6 These emissions factors use averages from several sources, including AP-42, the European Environmental Agency, and studies examining China specifically, to arrive at an average value that is not based solely on measurements from the United States.…”
