Monitoring and Carbon Offsets
We use satellite and drone-based surveys to monitor methane sources. These are integrated with AI and GIS technologies to analyse green house emissions. The data is then processed for carbon offsets.
Power Generation
We capture methane onsite from fugitive emissions, which is then used for power generation, and to power mine cooling and heating systems. This process transforms what would have been wasted resources into cost-effective power, significantly reducing your company’s environmental and greenhouse gas emissions liability, and energy overheads.
Our mission is to deliver cutting-edge energy management solutions that not only save you money but also reduce your environmental liability.
