ERA has awarded Qube Technologies $2.55 million to advance continuous emissions monitoring platform for methane and greenhouse gas detection. The award is part of a $15.1 million investment in seven technologies led by Calgary companies, announced by the Government of Alberta and ERA. Total value of Qube's project is $7.9 million.

Qube has passed its SOC 2 Type II audit for the third consecutive year. This achievement confirms what our customers already know: our controls, processes, and infrastructure consistently meet the highest standards for data security. 

Qube has officially passed its SOC 2 Type II audit. This achievement confirms that our controls, processes, and infrastructure consistently meet high standards for data security, availability, and confidentiality. 

Continuous monitoring provides a clear advantage: it constantly captures emissions data 24 hours a day. But this volume of data comes at a significant cost of bandwidth and power.

How can operators maintain reliable monitoring without straining their networks or batteries? Qube solves this by combining efficient power use with intelligent sampling techniques.

Here we review the advances in sampling, data compression, and payload frequency that make this possible.

Strategic sensor placement is critical for reliable, real-time methane detection. Detection depends not just on technology, but on understanding wind behavior, emission sources, and site constraints. 

Qube’s deployment methodology uses historical wind data, source mapping, and MILP-based optimization to design sensor arrays that maximize detection coverage and minimize false negatives. 

The Qube deployment tool turns this methodology into a practical workflow—helping operators visualize trade-offs, configure sensor layouts, and balance detection accuracy with budget. 

Qube Technologies has built the Controlled Release Test Facility (CRTF), roughly 60 km (~ 37 mi) west of Calgary, Alberta, which functions as a specialized field environment to conduct continuous monitoring (CM) emissions tests under controlled real-world conditions.
