Propane use at Ruby’s Inn has helped to eliminate 5,200 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent. 

 Propane is an ideal energy source for prime and secondary power generation because it’s a low-carbon energy option that is efficient and reliable, PERC says.

Whether driven by rigorous state and local regulatory mandates, or simply the desire to live more sustainably, the demand for a smaller carbon footprint and greater energy efficiency is growing in both the residential and commercial building and renovation markets.

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) is celebrating its inaugural National Propane Day on October 7, 2022. 

Hybrid systems that run on propane and solar can be tailored to a project’s unique needs, providing lower first costs and reduced ongoing energy costs and emissions.

Electrification is often presented as a strategy for reducing carbon emissions, but the truth is, it’s not practical to rely on electricity alone because no single energy source can solve the long-term challenges we face.

PERC predicts three existing trends will see continued growth in 2021.

A new study revealed that many residential customers — driven by cost savings and environmental impact — are placing a high priority on high-performance home projects.
