Utilities have a regulatory and public-service responsibility to operate their networks safely and reduce emissions. Traditional survey and repair methods create large leak backlogs, and potentially high-emitting leaks that may not be detected for months or even years.
Picarro can rapidly scan a natural gas utility network, at scale, to identify leaks and measure the associated fugitive emissions. Large emitters, which frequently contribute disproportionately to total network emissions, can be easily identified so they are remediated first as part of an informed and cost-effective emission reduction strategy.
