Methane emissions from fossil fuels remain at stubbornly high levels. The report presents the latest sector-wide methane emissions estimates and examines different abatement options and associated costs. It finds that measures to tackle methane emissions are often very cost-effective and could have brought an extra 100 billion cubic metres of gas to market in 2024.

Most people understand that carbon dioxide is the number one culprit when it comes to climate change. However there is another harmful gas permeating our atmosphere and warming up our planet: methane. This report outlines the impact of methane pollution and its contribution to global climate change.

When released in July 2022, the Gas Substitution Roadmap (GSR) took the important step of communicating the government’s intention to phase out the use of methane gas in Victoria. This paper provides five policy recommendations for the first update of the GSR.

This submission adds to the authors' multiple previous submissions by providing some critical updates to NT Parliament on research published in the last few years (2019-2022).

This report provides an overview of the policy levers and practices which could lead to a reduction in coal mine methane, and makes recommendations targeted at improving the measurement, reporting, mitigation and, ultimately, avoidance of coal mine methane emissions.
