McGill engineering researchers have introduced an open-source model that makes it easier for experts and non-experts alike to evaluate greenhouse gas emissions from U.S. natural gas supply chains and yields more accurate results.

McGill engineering researchers have introduced an open-source model that makes it easier for experts and non-experts alike to evaluate greenhouse gas emissions from U.S. natural gas supply chains and yields more accurate results.

Lead author Sarah Jordaan, an associate professor in McGill University’s Department of Civil Engineering, said the work, published in Cell Reports Sustainability, responds to a long-standing challenge.

“Natural gas supply chains are complex and are often studied using life cycle assessment (LCA),” Jordaan said. “Due to the complexity, LCAs can be challenging to develop and implement.”
