On October 20, 2014, Tom Curry, Vice President at M.J. Bradley & Associates, presented on an MJB&A report on life cycle methane emissions from natural gas used to generate electricity at the Western Interstate Energy Board (WIEB) of Directors Meeting. Tom's presentation covered sources of methane emissions throughout the natural gas life cycle, a discussion of "bottom up" and "top down" emissions estimates, and a comparison of the life cycle GHG emissions of natural gas compared to coal when used to generate electricity. The final report will be completed in December 2014, with an updated version due March 2015. More on WIEB's efforts to better understand methane emissions is available here.
