Researchers at Imperial College London’s Sustainable Gas Institute (SGI) are making sense of disparate data on methane emissions, and giving operators and policy makers some facts and technological strategies to work with as they seek to lower the energy industry’s greenhouse gas footprint, writes Russell McCulley.
Methane emissions occur throughout the natural gas supply chain, but estimates of the scale of the problem vary, making it difficult to determine how best to attack the problem and help reach ambitious climate goals.
