Methane emissions from Hydropower industry-Energy - Hydro Power
Bluemethane focuses on the critical task of measuring and recovering methane from hydropower reservoirs, addressing a significant environmental challenge. Methane emissions from these reservoirs represent a notable portion of global greenhouse gases, surpassing even coal-powered plants in certain instances. Bluemethane offers a precise methane and greenhouse gas monitoring service, enhancing the reliability of emission reports. Furthermore, Bluemethane's innovative recovery solution involves using a gravity-driven inline degassing unit coupled with a vacuum system to capture methane before it escapes into the atmosphere, transforming it into an energy source. This process not only contributes to cleaner energy production but also generates additional revenue through biogas generation and carbon credits. Bluemethane's Reservoir Methane Capture Mechanism provides a unique 'methane-as-a-service' model, combining innovative technology with a financial framework to support methane capture in hydropower facilities.

Details
60% of the world's renewable energy is derived from hydropower reservoirs. At Bluemethane, we specialise in identifying and assisting those reservoirs emitting significant methane, ensuring they maintain their clean energy status.
Measuring
Estimated methane emissions are, in most cases, inaccurate. Bluemethane provides solutions to precisely measure and monitor dissolved methane, facilitating accurate reporting of emissions.
Methane recovery
Our service identifies where best to capture the methane. In many cases methane is emitted from the hydropower reservoir through degassing. Bluemethane’s solution is designed to capture this methane before it is released into the atmosphere, generating a new source of revenue.
