Funding Notice: Methane Emissions Reduction Program Oil and Gas Methane Monitoring and Mitigation | Department of Energy Funding Notice: Methane Emissions Reduction Program Oil and Gas Methane Monitoring and Mitigation FOA number : DE-FOA-0003256 Download the full funding opportunity : FedConnect Funding Amount : $850,000,000 On December 20, 2024 , the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced approximately $850 million for 43 projects selected for negotiation that will help small oil and gas operators, Tribes, and other entities across the country to reduce, monitor, measure, and quantify methane emissions from the oil and gas sector as part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda .
The funding builds on unprecedented action across the Biden-Harris Administration to dramatically reduce methane emissions, with agencies taking nearly 100 actions since 2023 , including the finalization of an EPA rule that is expected to reduce methane emissions from covered oil and gas sources by 80% from 2024 to 2038 compared to projected emissions without the rule. This funding is provided from the Inflation Reduction Act.
The Inflation Reduction Act, through the Methane Emissions Reduction Program, directed EPA to take action to tackle wasteful methane emissions from the oil and gas sector. Utilizing resources provided by Congress in the Inflation Reduction Act, EPA is partnering with DOE to provide $1.
36 billion in financial and technical assistance to improve methane monitoring and reduce methane and other greenhouse gas emissions from the oil and gas sector. These investments are also expected to result in co-benefits of reducing non-greenhouse gas emissions such as volatile organic compounds and hazardous air pollutants.
The selected projects funded by the Inflation Reduction Act, the largest climate investment in history, represent a significant step in addressing climate change and improving air quality. By mitigating legacy air pollution and supporting small oil and natural gas operators, the projects will help reduce methane emissions through available and innovative technologies.
Three projects will help small operators across the country significantly reduce methane emissions from low-producing oil and natural gas operations, using commercially available technology solutions. Thirty-one projects will accelerate the deployment of early-commercial technology solutions to reduce methane emissions from new and existing equipment.
Four projects will improve communities’ access to empirical emissions data and participation in monitoring. Five projects will enhance the detection and measurement of methane emissions from oil and gas operations at regional scale. A detailed list of the selected projects can be found here .
