CH4 Connections Methane Emissions Conference
National focus has escalated around characterizing and managing methane emissions. Better measurement of methane emissions is an essential first step so too, is the importance of measurement data being understandable and usable by the operators that are going to have to mitigate those emissions. The 12th annual CH4 Connections Methane Emissions Conference hosted by GTI Energy and the Energy Institute at Colorado State University and focuses on how to effectively decarbonize our energy systems and the role of methane emission mitigation in these efforts. The conference takes place on October 8-9, 2025, in Fort Collins, CO.
This year’s agenda will be another robust and thought-provoking event in a long series of successful conferences. The event unites representatives from the natural gas industry, research organizations, regulatory agencies, and technology vendors in one setting. Join us this year in a conversation targeted at reducing methane emissions and carbon impacts through innovative technology solutions and methane emissions policy.
GTI Energy and the Energy Institute at Colorado State University have partnered to co-host the conference for the past nine years. The event is a way to connect with leading research experts, policy makers, and environmental advocates to collaborate and share perspectives on important issues. Keynote speakers along with methane emissions and mitigation experts serve as moderators and panelists providing an intimate and interactive experience for participants. Past conference proceedings are also available on the conference website.
Center for Methane Research (CMR)
The Center for Methane Research (CMR) is a science-led initiative dedicated to advancing technical understanding and operational excellence in methane management. Serving industry, regulators, and stakeholders, CMR provides a rigorous, evidence-based platform for evaluating methane’s role in natural gas systems, from production and infrastructure to end-use, through the lens of energy resiliency and public safety. CMR provides a trusted platform for understanding methane’s role in natural gas production, infrastructure integrity, and end-use applications.
CMR curates and synthesizes peer-reviewed scientific articles and authoritative technical information to support consistent, high-integrity decision-making. Its research efforts prioritize precision and reproducibility, focusing on methane’s behavior in atmospheric chemistry, its physical properties, and its implications for infrastructure reliability and operational safety. It also facilitates and conducts independent research, emphasizing methane’s relevance to operational safety and system reliability. Through this work, CMR contributes to the development of robust, science-informed strategies for a secure and resilient energy future.
