Propane Cuts Greenhouse Gas Emissions

From fleet vehicles, to farm equipment to homes across the country, propane provides a cleaner energy choice to fuel America's way of life.

Today, more than 10 million vehicles around the world run on propane, a fuel that delivers high-octane power but fewer greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline, and considerably less nitrogen oxide and particulate pollution than diesel. In addition, thousands of propane forklifts keep our economy moving every day.

The majority of the propane we use is produced domestically. And with the largest storage capacity in the world, the United States supply is abundant. Pipelines, processing facilities, refueling stations, distribution centers and storage facilities already exist across the country, making large capital investments in infrastructure unnecessary.

Nearly 80 percent of American farms use propane to run pumps and engines, dry crops, heat buildings, process foods - and reduce emissions. Propane is also being used to generate heat and steam to eradicate weeds and pests, sterilize soils and defoliate crops for a more organic harvest.

Environmentally-conscious homeowners and builders embrace propane as well. Millions of homeowners and builders turn to propane to cut greenhouse gas emissions while keeping rooms warm, stovetops lit and water hot.

Direct Payment is good for the environment.  If one in five households were to switch to electronic payments, bill, and statements, we would collectively  save 1.8 million tree each year.
