Success stories

With the entry into force of the EU Methane Regulation, LSW Netz had to measurably reduce methane emissions — while maintaining full efficiency in network operations. The new tasks needed to integrate seamlessly into existing workflows and place as little additional burden as possible on technicians.

With the EU Methane Regulation, ZVOE was faced with several new tasks: systematically recording and evaluating emissions and integrating them into the workflows of various departments. Existing tools like GaWaS and the ERP system were insufficient — a central tool for emissions management was missing.

With the entry into force of the Methane Regulation, EWB faced the challenge of integrating new regulatory requirements into existing workflows. Especially at the beginning, it was unclear which authorities were responsible, which reports were required, and what data had to be submitted in what form.

New terms, deadlines, and processes were difficult to reconcile with existing workflows. Methane emissions had previously been managed using Excel spreadsheets and network inspection reports — which was insufficient for the new requirements. Additionally, there were limited internal resources and a tight schedule for the first report.

With the EU Methane Regulation coming into force in August 2024, Crystal had to quickly respond to new legal requirements without disrupting ongoing operations. This involved more precise monitoring of methane emissions, timely leak repairs, and fulfilling reporting and documentation obligations — all transparently, efficiently, and integrated into the existing infrastructure.
