For some facilities, the flare monitoring will directly affect their GHG reporting in amended Subpart W and the methane fee mandated by the Inflation Reduction Act starting 2024.
Providence Photonics has been developing advanced and cost-effective flare monitoring technologies for over a decade. It has worked closely with EPA on flare monitoring methods. The methods invented by Providence Photonics have been cited in the preamble to OOOOb/c…
