OIES Podcast – Update on methane emissions
Manage episode 484355504 series 1431286
In this latest OIES podcast James Henderson talks to Jonathan Stern and Maria Olczak about their latest research on methane emissions in the energy sector. Firstly, Jonathan outlines his thoughts on what progress has, or has not, been made since methane emissions became a focus of industry attention five years ago. He summarises his thoughts by outlining his four “A”s – awareness of the issue has improved, agreements have been signed underlining its importance, aims to improve the situation have seen targets created but achievements have been somewhat more limited and disappointing. Jonathan also discusses the impact of the Trump administration on US methane emission targets and incentives and considers the impact on the LNG industry. Maria then picks up the topic from an EU perspective, discussing how the EU methane regulation could be transformative for the global gas market and could change the way that the EU selects its sources of gas supply. She looks at the biggest practical and technical hurdles ton its implementation and considers whether the Commission’s new focus on competitiveness and affordability could dilute the impact of the regulation in the years ahead.
