In comparison to other safe and efficient fuel sources, propane gas is a first choice for clean energy that can be used for a variety of residential, commercial, and industrial needs. Read more about the environmental benefits provided by propane gas here:
Carbon Emissions: Propane gas contains significantly less carbon than many types of fuel for which it can be used as a substitute, including diesel fuel, gasoline, and coal. This is reflected in comparing propane’s greenhouse gas emissions per productivity unit to those of other fuel sources. Even natural gas, which generates fewer carbon emissions per productivity unit than propane, ultimately has a heavier impact on the environment because of the methane that is released into the air as it is burned.
Toxicity: One of propane’s environmental selling points is that it burns cleanly. Propane gas is non-toxic and contains no lead. Upon vaporization, propane dissipates rapidly. All of these factors make propane’s impact on the earth and soil negligible.
Air Contaminants: Air contaminants released by some fuels cause significant air pollution. Some of these contaminants can cause or increase the risk of disease in humans, plants, and animals. According to the World Liquid Propane Gas Association , propane gas produces far fewer air contaminants than coal, diesel, oil, and wood-based fuels. Switching to propane gas can actually improve the quality of air in environments where one of these other sources has been used.
Transportation: Canadians have an added advantage when it comes to propane and the environment, and that is that propane is produced in Canada and can be distributed to most Ontario homes and businesses using very little energy. On a related note, propane-fueled transportation is a green alternative to gasoline-powered transport that is increasing in popularity as technology develops.
