NGSI is a voluntary, industry-wide approach for companies to calculate methane emissions intensity by segment—the Methane Emissions Intensity Protocol (Protocol).The protocol establishes intensity metrics for specific segments of the supply chain because this structure provides the most comparable points of reference between companies. It also provides guidance on the source of natural gas throughput to be used as the denominator in segment-level methane emissions intensity calculations.
