This Cooperative Agreement award from the Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (CFDA 81.089 - Fossil Energy Research and Development) provides $6,349,734 to the Institute of Gas Technology (GTI Energy) to deploy and test a novel, low-cost linear motor methane mitigation compressor. The primary objective is to capture a wide variety of methane leaks across the natural gas value chain, including from reciprocating compressors and pneumatic controllers. The compressor will be used to recover emissions from planned events, such as blowdowns required for regular maintenance, which are a major emission source. This project will validate the effectiveness of the technology in various environments and quantify its wide-ranging applications for methane mitigation. The award period runs from January 15, 2025 to September 30, 2028.
