We all understand the urgency behind climate change: we must reduce greenhouse gases dramatically and fast. But what tends to get lost in the conversation–and is of equal importance–is the reality that as a global society, we consume a tremendous amount of energy. Demand for energy has grown exponentially, worldwide, and will only continue to do so as countries develop and technology advances.

We have to fix the train while it’s moving. There’s no time for us to dismantle our existing energy infrastructure and rebuild new ones on a global scale, and certainly not at the speed required to meet climate milestones. Fortunately, emissions and energy demand aren’t the only things advancing at rapid speed – science is too.

At Rimere, we’re a mix of wildly brilliant plasma physicists and seasoned natural gas experts. Together, we discovered that we can use our propriety plasma technology to solve for both climate change and the energy needs of the future. How? By not starting from scratch.

Natural gas is a leading source of energy globally, but it’s also mostly made up of methane, a devastating greenhouse gas. It’s a cleaner-burning fuel than coal, oil, diesel or gasoline, but it still releases carbon emissions, and worse, the natural gas infrastructure is notorious for leaking methane into the atmosphere.

But what if this problem could actually be the solution? What if by decarbonizing the existing natural gas infrastructure, we could then repurpose it into an immediate solution for climate change? At Rimere, it’s our goal to do exactly that. We’ve developed two complimentary devices that revolutionize a global energy source. The Mitigator targets fugitive methane emissions along the natural gas pipeline, and the Reformer turns the natural gas supply into clean hydrogen and solid-carbon graphene, without generating any CO2 emissions in the process.

Rimere is on a mission to solve for both climate change and the energy needs of the future. As CEO, I bring seasoned leadership and a wealth of experience in the natural gas industry, from business strategy and market development to public policy, engineering & construction, operations, and manufacturing. With my team of plasma physicists and product engineers, we’re mitigating fugitive methane emissions and transforming the entire natural gas infrastructure into one for zero-emission clean hydrogen. Unlike SMR, there’s no need to capture any CO2, because our technology produces a solid nano-carbon called graphene – a new wonder material with the potential to be as ground-breaking as plastic.
