A recent open access paper in Environmental Research Letters on IOPScience used GHGSat data as part of a study on Palm Oil Mill methane detection.

GHGSat showcased its Vanguard satellite at COP29, providing first imagery of carbon dioxide emissions. The Canadian company, recognized by Deloitte for rapid growth, aims to enhance methane and emissions monitoring.

Toronto based Space Flight Laboratory developers of a variety of small satellite platforms and technology, announced at this years Small Satellite Conference that GHGSat has contracted them to build two more greenhouse gas monitoring microsatellites, GHGSat-C12 and C13.

GHGSat methane emissions data has passed its evaluation period and has been approved for use through NASA’s Commercial Small Satellite Data Acquisition Program.

GHGSat has appointed Jeffrey Kadanoff as the companies new Chief Financial Officer replacing Francois Rodrigue, a co-founder, who is retiring after 12 years and joining the board of directors.

As 2023 comes to an end we decided to look back on the year and select the top seven stories based on editor selection combined with readership preferences. Not surprisingly, Moon related stories dominated but a few people may be surprised to learn that Canada had 23 satellites launch this past year, more than double the previous two years combined.

Québec City based ABB Canada announced last week that it would be building four more hyperspectral cameras for GHGSat and that they would be delivered in 2024.

SpaceX will attempt to launch the Transporter-9 rideshare mission on Saturday, November 11 which has 113 payloads including seven Canadian satellites from GHGSat, Kepler Communications, Wyvern, and the University of Toronto Aerospace Team (UTAT) Space Systems.

NASA has been evaluating a variety of commercial Earth observation providers including GHGSat to as part of its Commercial Small Satellite Data Acquisition Program.

GHGSat has released details of a significant methane leak, this time in the UK. In this case, when alerted, the operator of the leaking pipeline, fixed the issue quickly. GHGSat said this was the first time a “UK methane emission has been seen from space and mitigated.”
