Emission reduction

Making emissions visible, measurable, and manageable.

Shaping a low-emission future

 

Reducing emissions has become a central challenge for industries and societies around the world. From energy production and industrial processes to everyday household activities, unmonitored leaks, inefficiencies, and outdated technologies can result in significant environmental impact. As the urgency to combat climate change grows, understanding where and how emissions occur is critical to making smarter, more sustainable decisions.


Advanced sensing, continuous monitoring, and real-time data analysis are key to tackling this challenge. They allow organizations to identify hidden sources of emissions, respond quickly to problems, and optimize energy use more efficiently. By making emissions visible and measurable, these technologies lay the foundation for a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable future—for communities, businesses, and the planet alike.


We contribute to this vision with solutions that make emissions tangible and manageable—from refrigerant and methane leak detection to precise monitoring of clean cooking fuels—helping industries and households act faster and smarter to reduce their environmental footprint

Refrigerant leak detection for safer, greener cooling

We develop sensor solutions that detect emissions of low-GWP refrigerants in HVACR systems. These substances—including the increasingly adopted flammable A2L and A3 refrigerants—can pose both safety risks and environmental impacts when they escape into the atmosphere. Our technology measures the thermal conductivity of gases, enabling fast and reliable detection even under challenging operating conditions. By identifying refrigerant releases at an early stage, we help prevent unnecessary emissions and support a safe, sustainable transition to climate-friendly alternatives. In doing so, our sensors make a direct contribution to reducing global greenhouse gas emissions.

Methane Leakage Monitoring with Nubo Sphere

From Sensirion Connected Solutions, Nubo Sphere provides a complete system for continuous methane emissions monitoring. As methane is a potent greenhouse gas, detecting and addressing leaks quickly is crucial for reducing environmental impact in the oil and gas sector. Nubo Sphere combines advanced sensor technology with real-time analytics to detect, localize, and quantify methane emissions accurately. Our compact, rugged sensor nodes continuously measure methane concentrations, environmental conditions, and, when available, wind data, transmitting all information to the cloud-based platform for actionable insights. With continuous monitoring, site operators receive fast alerts about emission events, allowing them to act immediately

Clean cooking with LPG flow measurement

We support the transition to cleaner cooking solutions through precise LPG flow measurement. In many developing regions, households still rely on solid fuels like wood or coal, which produce harmful smoke and greenhouse gases. By enabling safe, efficient, and affordable LPG-based cooking, our sensors help reduce these emissions while improving health and quality of life. Our technology ensures accurate fuel delivery, minimizes waste, and maximizes efficiency for both residential and commercial applications. By replacing polluting fuels with LPG and optimizing its use, we contribute to a measurable reduction in local air pollution and global greenhouse gas emissions.
