Webinar | The Role of Technology in Global Methane Emissions Reduction
Population growth, the rapid adoption of AI and the data centre infrastructure it requires, bring an increased global demand for energy. And while the energy mix is changing, fossil fuels still play a major role, requiring cleaner energy solutions with reduced emissions.
Carbon dioxide (CO2), responsible for most emissions, has long-lasting effects, which technologies like CCUS and DACC aim to reduce. Methane (CH4), an even more potent but shorter-lived GHG, presents an opportunity for significant reductions through detection and mitigation technologies. This lecture explores methane sources in oil, gas, and waste management, current detection methods such as Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) cameras in satellites, and evaluates the voluntary and regulatory frameworks that drive methane emissions reduction action across the globe.
This session will be held through On24.

About the speaker
Stanley Opara, MBA, PMP, is a senior technical and policy advisor at GHGSat, a pioneer in methane and carbon dioxide remote sensing via a constellation of 11 commercial satellites—the largest currently deployed by any greenhouse gas-sensing organization globally. He ensures that GHGSat contributes actively to the development of emissions reduction policies and regulations across Canada and the United States through engagement with regulators, while also enabling internal understanding of regulatory impacts to customers and GHGSat.
