FROST METHANE LABS
The Methane Mitigation Company
What We Do
We install highly efficient flares to destroy concentrated sources of methane, turning waste greenhouse gases into value for our partners and landowners. We focus on sites where we can make a large impact, and handle the end-to-end process for our partners, including permitting, installation, and navigating carbon market validation and offset sales.
Low-cost, targeted, large-scale climate change mitigation.
Frost Methane exists to identify, monitor, and flare concentrated methane seeps from active and abandoned coal mines, Arctic permafrost, and other geologic sources worldwide. We earn revenue through carbon offset markets, which we re-invest into future deployments, building a global network of self-sustaining devices to combat climate change. Where practical, we also have the option to add electricity generation when we can match it with a productive on-site use.
Technology
Frost Methane deploys methane destruction devices on concentrated methane seeps worldwide. Our devices measure gas flow and concentration, then convert the methane stream into carbon dioxide using flares and generators. We incorporate an automated monitoring and reporting system which allows our fleet to be deployed and managed at scale.

Impact
Environment
Methane emissions are responsible for 20% of greenhouse gas warming and are 28x more potent than CO2. We fight climate change by flaring concentrated releases of methane, and add to the scientific dataset on methane release in the process. We do this because we believe that urgent action is needed to preserve both our planet's biodiversity and our most sensitive communities. Our approach has the potential to offset 1% of global human emissions, equivalent to removing 100 million cars from the road.
Employment
Where possible, we hire local community members to help with installation and maintenance of our systems. We bring a new, profitable business model to rural areas.
Equity
We help landowners earn an additional steady revenue stream from their land, while we handle project operations and market fluctuations.
