LPG is literally available anywhere.

It does not need a huge infrastructure of pipelines to support it. Often, it is the only fuel to reach island or high altitude communities and, in times of emergency or national disaster, it can be crucial to survival.

Thanks to its portability and generally flexible distribution system, LPG is available in rural areas beyond the reach of the natural gas pipelines. Citizens in these areas, who might otherwise have to rely on less environmentally-friendly alternatives such as heating oil, have the option to opt for gaseous power and all the advantages that go with it.

In developing communities, LP Gas can provide a first modern alternative to traditional cooking fuels (e.g. firewood, charcoal, dung), contributing to a better quality of life and importantly, liberating women and children from time spent collecting fuel, thus enabling them to pursue education or value-added economic activities within the community. LPG has many applications including domestic heating, warm water, cooking, lighting, power generation, agriculture and industrial heating. Click here to see some of the many uses for LPG.
