The law passed, but how would the utilities comply? Knowing there was no proven method of finding the high-volume leaks, HEET conducted a pilot study with the three largest utilities in Massachusetts-Columbia Gas, Eversource, and National Grid. The Large Volume Leak study confirmed that fixing the large leaks cuts methane emissions in half and established fast, reliable, and effective methods for identifying big leaks for repair. HEET worked with utilities and allies to design an ongoing Shared Action Plan that formalizes data exchange, repair verification, and reassessing methods of addressing large volume leaks... Some day, when our emissions fall to zero and we live in a restored climate, HEET will work itself out of a job.
