チリ・サンティアゴとコロンビア・ボゴタの35世帯・23世帯でガス調理器具からのメタン、CO2、CO、NOx排出を実測。連続漏洩と着火時排出を含む実排出量はIPCC排出係数の6倍以上であり、両国の温室効果ガスインベントリが過小評価していることを示した。ラテンアメリカでの実測の必要性を強調。

English

Measured methane, CO2, CO, and NOx emissions from gas cookstoves in 35 homes in Santiago, Chile and 23 in Bogotá, Colombia. Found that real-world methane emissions (including continuous leaks and ignition emissions) are over six times higher than the Tier 1 IPCC emission factors currently used in national inventories, indicating significant underestimation.

日本のGX文脈において

日本でも家庭用ガス燃焼のメタン排出係数は主に海外データに依存している。本研究成果は、国内の実測に基づく排出係数見直しの必要性を示唆する。

In the global GX context

This study provides rare real-world emission data from Latin America, showing that IPCC default factors may substantially underestimate methane from residential gas use globally, with implications for national GHG inventory accuracy and mitigation strategies.

👥 読者別の含意

📄 Abstract(原文)

<strong class="journal-contentHeaderColor">Abstract.</strong> Natural gas is widely used for household cooking, with methane (CH<sub>4</sub>), its main component, being a potent short-lived greenhouse gas (GHG). While often seen as a cleaner alternative, natural gas combustion and leaks contribute to GHG emissions and indoor air pollution. Yet, fugitive methane emissions from residential appliances, especially cookstoves, are poorly quantified in low- and middle-income countries. In this study, we measured CH<sub>4</sub>, carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from cookstoves in 35 homes in Santiago, Chile, and 23 in Bogot&aacute;, Colombia, two countries experiencing rapid growth in natural gas use. We assessed continuous methane leaks, ignition-related emissions, and combustion emissions, using a mass balance approach that accounts for air exchange rates and gas concentrations. Our real-world measurements provide rare data on household cookstove emissions and inform emission factors used in GHG inventories. We found that methane emissions from residential stoves in Bogot&aacute; and Santiago are over six times higher than the Tier 1 IPCC emission factors currently used in national inventories. Notably, continuous leaks and ignition-related emissions, which are excluded from official estimates, contribute significantly to total methane emissions. These findings suggest that national inventories in Chile and Colombia underestimate methane emissions from household gas use, highlighting the need for more real-world measurements and research across Latin America. Our results have important implications for improving the accuracy of GHG inventories, understanding the role of household energy use in climate change, and guiding effective mitigation strategies.
