While no single energy source can solve every environmental challenge, propane and renewable propane complement solar, wind, and other renewable energies to reduce emissions while providing reliable power.
In fact, using propane produces 43% fewer greenhouse gas emissions than using an equivalent amount of electricity generated from the grid. Plus, it won’t contaminate soil or groundwater because it’s non-toxic and non-poisonous.
And propane’s environmentally friendly benefits don’t end there — major advances are being made today for more renewable propane in the future, sourced from used cooking oil and other waste products, for a carbon-neutral fuel that adds no new carbon to the atmosphere when burned.
There’s a more efficient and cost-effective way to power your home & business: Meet Propane!
5 Cost & Environment Friendly Advantages
1: IT'S A CLEAN, GREEN ENERGY SOURCE
Propane is a non-toxic, non-poisonous fuel that poses zero environmental risk to soil or groundwater. It emits less than half the greenhouse gases that electricity does and is not associated with carbon mono or dioxide gases or other nitrogen oxides which are harmful to the environment and using it reduces greenhouse gas and other air pollutants.
2: IT'S AFFORDABLE & A GOOD INVESTMENT
Propane is a safe, reliable, and efficient source of fuel, all without breaking the household’s budget. Because propane is a more efficient fuel, it costs less to operate. Propane appliances also generally have a longer lifespan than their electric counterparts, saving you both money and peace of mind in the long run. Low emissions and lower energy bills, all while providing premium performance that cannot be matched by any other fuel source.
3: IT'S VERSATILE
Not only is propane a great source of heat for your home, but it can also be used to power appliances such as stoves, ovens, clothes dryers, and water heaters, as well as generators, fireplaces, and outdoor lighting, kitchens, grills, fire pits, patio heaters, and even your pool & spa.
4: IT'S DEPENDABLE & WORRY-FREE
When the power goes out, a propane-powered generator won’t leave you without power when you need it most. Propane doesn’t degrade over time, unlike diesel or gasoline, making it an ideal standby power fuel. Propane is portable too, it can be used virtually anywhere, including in rural areas beyond the reach of natural gas.
5: IT OUTPERFORMS THE COMPETITION
Propane offers more consistent and comfortable warmth. It can handle an entire home’s energy needs for days, unlike solar or wind-powered systems. Propane complements solar, wind, and other renewable energies to reduce emissions while providing reliable power.
