The Sustainability Committee conducts studies and analysis in support of efforts to demonstrate that Gas plays an important role in the world’s future sustainable energy mix, for the public acceptance of unconventional Gas supplies, and by promoting natural gas as a partner of renewables.

The committee will provide an agenda and long-term strategic views on renewable gases to achieve decarbonisation of the gas sector and other sectors that consume gas for their processes such as households, industry, mobility, and power generation, and to reduce GHG emissions, with the objective of becoming emission neutral by 2050. The committee will: Promote the development of renewable gases as a new key solution for the energy transition, analyse Worldwide Benchmark on the degree of implementation of renewable gases; Analyse best practices in the gas sector to reduce methane emissions, define and propose a standard methodology to measure methane emissions in the gas sector and define strategies to attain the objectives of the Global Methane Pledge; Work out a guide including ESG best practices to implement in the gas sector around the world
