Energy Emissions Modeling and Data Lab

The Energy Emissions Modeling and Data Lab (EEMDL) is a multi-disciplinary research and education center on a mission to be the leading global data and analytics hub to support improved greenhouse gas emissions accounting across energy supply chains. EEMDL was founded by the University of Texas at Austin, Colorado State University and the Colorado School of Mines in January 2023 with three primary objectives: 1. Develop reliable, timely, transparent, and peer-reviewed models and tools to enable measurement-based greenhouse gas emissions assessments. 2. Publish up-to-date, high-resolution, measurement-based, and standardized datasets on methane emissions across oil and gas supply chains. 3. Train students, researchers, and stakeholders in industry, government, and other organizations on the use of EEMDL’s models and tools. EEMDL's products will help both public and private institutions develop climate strategies and actions informed by more accurate data, and in turn, identify accretive opportunities for emissions reductions. EEMDL’s research products – consisting of protocols, software tools and emissions datasets – will be scientifically peer reviewed and updated regularly.
