SoCalGas R&D shows pilots that raise detection hit rates and component designs that could cut meter leaks
Feb 4, 2026
SoCalGas R&D described pilots — 37 USPS‑mounted passive sensors, expanded aero methane mapping and algorithm training — with improving hit rates and several component redesigns (valves, threaded fittings, ultrasonic meters) that R&D estimates could reduce thousands of MCF if rolled out.
The full story
SoCalGas research and development staff presented pilot results and component studies intended to detect and reduce methane emissions more cost‑effectively.
