Evaluating net life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions intensities from gas and coal at varying methane leakage rates

The net climate impact of gas and coal life-cycle emissions are highly dependent on methane leakage. Every molecule of methane leaked alters the climate advantage because methane warms the planet significantly more than CO _2 over its decade-long lifetime. We find that global gas systems that leak o...
