Technology Adoption Platform
The Technology Adoption Platform (TAP) aims to accelerate the adoption of innovative methane detection, measurement, and reduction technologies by closing the gap between technology developers and both industry operators (adopters) and investors, fostering stronger connections that support commercialization and scale-up.
TAP provides access to a curated portfolio of pre-screened, near-commercial technologies and facilitates meaningful interactions through targeted pitch events, featured conversations with industry champions, and tailored matchmaking opportunities.
Each participating technology provider in TAP is supported by an industry champion—a company or organization that has firsthand experience with the technology, either through a pilot, demonstration, or early-stage adoption. The champion plays a critical role in validating the solution’s performance and relevance by joining the technology provider during presentations, sharing insights from real-world implementation, and engaging in Q&A with other industry adopters and investors. Their involvement helps build trust, bridge the adoption gap, and demonstrate the technology’s commercial readiness.
Participation in the TAP program is open to technology providers focused on methane management solutions, the energy industry seeking to adopt emerging technologies, and investors interested in early-stage startups.
