In 2023 the EU announced its intention to create its first law aimed at restricting methane emissions. The EU Methane Regulation will obligate suppliers of coal, oil, and gas to measure and report their emissions and take actions where necessary to reduce them. 

To support industrial companies, effective, efficient, and rapid methods of detecting methane emissions and natural gas leaks are required. ABB is proud to empower its customers to reduce their emissions through accurate measurement and monitoring.

White paper: Cutting European methane emissions through advanced gas leak detection


With increasing methane emissions recognized as a significant factor in global warming, the world is waking up to the dangers it poses. In response to these risks, the European Union have put in place ambitious reduction goals, together with stringent legislation to ensure emitting organizations identify the source of leaks and take action to fix them promptly.

The availability of highly accurate and easily usable methane detection systems will play a role in reducing the effect of this significant greenhouse gas and help ensure a better environment for everyone.

 

Here is what you can find in the white paper:

  • The challenge of methane emissions
  • Tackling emissions through international efforts
  • European regulations on methane emissions
  • The challenges of methane measurement (non-optical and optical methods)
  • ABB Ability natural gas leak detection solutions
