Unpacking the Climate Impact of Hydrogen
GTI Energy’s Center for Methane Research (CMR) is joining forces with our Hydrogen Technology Center (HTC) to host a conversation with Didier Hauglustaine, director of research at the Climate and Environmental Sciences Laboratory (LSCE) to better understand atmospheric concentrations of hydrogen and what implications that has on its use.
Differences between Calculated and Actual Emissions
CMR Program Manager Dr. Chris Moore discusses what goes into calculating methane emissions in regulatory reporting programs and emissions inventories along with some key differences between those calculations and how much methane is emitted to the atmosphere.
Calculated vs. Actual Methane Emissions Part 2 – Reconciling with Veritas
In this second video in our series on the differences between calculated and actual methane emissions, Dr. Chris Moore discusses at a high level what it takes to compare measurements that a company has made with their existing calculated emissions. He introduces the GTI Energy initiative, called Veritas, that is attempting to develop protocols for doing just that, across all of segments of the natural gas supply chain.

The Center for Methane Research (CMR) provides a centralized, industry-wide technical and policy support resource focused on the presence, measurement, and potential impacts of methane in the atmosphere, highlighting the interconnected role of natural gas production, delivery, and use.
Development of this “wellhead-to-burner-tip” industry resource provides a common platform of technical understanding that can be used in the decision-making process in support of balanced policy decisions that impact the environment, industry, and ultimately the consumer.
