IMEO Methane Monitoring

Tender description

UKSA will contract GHGsat to provide Satellite derived Methane data to the International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) and UK Government. The contract will allow the UK to fulfil international agreements and support domestic policy making e.g. towards achieving net zero by 2050. Recent information can be found on the Government Climate Change Dashboard, but this procurement will enable accurate monitoring and reporting on GHG emissions. Aims: Advance the UK's Leadership in Methane Mitigation: To reinforce the UK's international leadership in methane monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV), aligning with its climate commitments and diplomatic goals. Support Global Methane Monitoring Efforts: To strengthen the IMEO's capacity to detect, validate, and respond to methane emissions globally through the integration of high-resolution GHGSat data. Bridge Data Gaps in Methane Emissions: To address critical gaps in global methane emissions data by providing access to satellite imagery with higher sensitivity and accuracy than publicly available alternatives. ## Contract award Title: Methane Gas Satellite tracking - GHG Sat IMEO Data
