As a clean-burning, portable, and highly efficient option, propane is the fuel of choice across many industries. Not only does it allow businesses to manage their costs and increase productivity, but it also helps to reduce their impact on the environment. Learn more about how various industries utilize propane to power the American workforce.
Agriculture
Farmers use propane to power much of their day-to-day operations: grain drying, irrigation, building heat, standby power and more. More than 60,000 miles of pipeline and thousands of fuel dealers ensure that propane is readily available to farmers across the country. This allows farm operations to continue even when there are grid outages. Propane significantly reduces fuel costs when compared to diesel alternatives and is an eco-friendly option to help protect the environment.
Commercial Buildings
All different types of commercial buildings rely on propane to ensure efficient operations. Hotels and gyms often choose propane water heaters as they recover hot water quickly, and restaurants and buildings with cafeterias prefer propane to cook meals quickly and precisely. Propane generators are also used by data centers, medical offices, and grocery stores to provide backup power should the electricity go out. Propane allows these buildings—no matter what their size or purpose—to provide the highest level of service.
Fleets
Propane autogas is used to provide fuel for many different types of vehicles, from delivery trucks to police cars to school buses. This type of fuel often costs less than traditional gasoline or diesel and is less susceptible to price fluctuations. Since propane autogas burns cleanly, it also reduces the amount of wear on vehicles, which can help them last longer. Another benefit: propane autogas can be stored onsite for faster refueling.
Landscape and Turf Management
Groundskeepers at parks, corporate campuses, sports complexes, and schools also rely on propane to power equipment used for upkeep and maintenance. Propane can be used to fuel lawnmowers, flame weeders, and power irrigation systems. Not only does propane help this equipment run efficiently, but it also runs more quietly, a plus for both operators and patrons.
