| Tiivistelmä: | The objective of the present paper is to estimate the economic value that people in an urban area in India (Panipat Thermal Power Station PTPS Colony in Panipat, Haryana) place upon improving the air quality. The dose-response method, based on the Gerking and Stanley (1986) model, is used to estimate the economic benefits of air quality improvement. These estimates range from one to two percent of monthly income. Income and health status variables were significant determinants of peoples' willingness to pay (WTP) for air quality improvements. |
