Methane Emissions Measurement and Advanced Leak Detection Solutions

5% of the emitters represent generally about 50% of the emissions, and that's true for all assets, which is a great opportunity because we can actually deal with a small number of large emitters and reduce our emissions effectively. In terms of resource management, it's critical that you don't run after every small thing. It's much more effective to run after the big things, and because they are dominant, you make a big difference.

We all know as operators, you can't address all of your risk all at once. You have to be able to prioritize things based off budget and other constraints. That's really where we see the PICARRO EQ dashboard and leak density dashboard coming into play. We have to prescriptively replace pre-'74 plastic and pre-'50s steel, but determining where to start and how to best allocate our resources and dollars is really where we see the benefits.

President

Consumers Energy's goal to be NetZero by 2030 is extremely important, and vehicles like Picarro are going to help us reach that goal. Being able to find and identify emissions events, whether it be part of our routine survey, looking at pipeline that's selected for repair, or even our system that isn't selected for repair...finding, identifying, and fixing those emissions events is going to help us drive down our emissions score in total and help reach that goal of being NetZero by 2030.

Team Lead

First, the support that Picarro lends to us, and the folks that are in the field, is really unmatched in the industry, in terms of getting people to answer phones, and the second part of it is the analytics side of it. There really isn't anybody out there doing the type of analytics that Picarro is doing. So the value add for that part of it is a really big benefit for us.
