Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 December 2024

Debate

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) (No. 2) Order 2024

Contribution

On the monitoring of flaring and venting, the legislation provides for a measurement-based approach for larger installations which will be able to keep track of vented CO2 emissions as and when they occur. For smaller installations, it provides for a calculation-based approach which enables operators to use samples to calculate the amount of CO2 being removed from the extracted oil and gas at different parts of the process; these can then be analysed on at least a weekly basis.
