Methane is a greenhouse gas “super-pollutant” that is 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide over 20 years. We can manage what we measure, but when it comes to methane emissions, we come up painfully…
As the name suggests, liquefied natural gas (LNG) involves turning gas into liquid form — a process known as liquefaction. Liquefaction does not alter the chemical makeup of gas, which is comprised of mostly methane…
Emissions from oil and gas used to be simply calculated using a uniform carbon content in these resources — a barrel of oil was reported to emit 434 kg carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), and an…
From renewable energy overtaking coal to breakthroughs in green steel, virtual power plants, affordable solar in Africa, and tools that pinpoint methane super-emitters, 2025 delivered major clean energy milestones. Explore RMI's top 10 wins shaping…
RMI experts analyze market trends, quality criteria, and risk implications for improved cookstoves carbon credits.
As season two of the oil-country drama kicks off, it continues to portray the risks of leaking gas in west Texas and other oil patches worldwide.
The Know Your Oil and Gas report and OCI+ web tool offer new climate intelligence to align oil and gas sector emissions with 1.5°C climate goals.
When you think of Rio De Janeiro, you likely picture the spectacle of Carnival, beautiful beaches, and famous landmarks nestled between mountains. Very few would picture this famous Brazilian state as the world’s…
The race is on to curb methane emissions and prevent energy waste through oil and gas supply chains. Readily quantifiable and comparable methane intensity metrics are sought after to meet this goal. Adopting such robust…
The re-launch of OCI+ shows why the emissions differences between oil and gas sources have profound implications for energy security and public safety.
