LPG EXCEPTIONAL ENERGY - INTRODUCTION

“LPG is an exceptional energy source due to its origin, benefits, applications and its industry”

LPG plays a key role in the transition towards a more secure, sustainable and competitive energy model

•Immediate and global availability

•Clear environmental benefits

•Transportation flexibility

•Its natural by-product origin

•Diverse application

LPG EXCEPTIONAL ENERGY - APPLICATIONS

“There are more than 1000 applications of LPG and it is also the most widely-used alternative to automotive fuel”

Agriculture

Automotive

Recreational

Cooking

Heating

Power generation

•A cooking fuel for a family in Africa •A community kitchen in India •Refrigeration for a shop owner in Brazil•Autogas for taxis in Tokyo•Welding for car manufacturers in Germany•Heat for the family home in Canada •Flame weeding for a rancher in Texas •Heat to provide lift for the first solo non-stop round the world balloon expedition •Life saving fuel for Mt Everest climbers•LPG even powers the Olympic torch

LPG EXCEPTIONAL ENERGY - APPLICATIONS

Only LPG can serve such a wide variety of uses:

That’s why it is referred to as the world’s most multi-purpose energy

BENEFITS – LPG IS A CLEAN ENERGY SOURCE

“LPG produces less air pollutants than diesel, oil, wood or coal”

LPG industry is well placed to provide solutions to improving local air quality by:

• Encouraging uptake of autogas and hybrid engines• Helping developing nations to switch from wood/kerosene to LPG for cooking

and heating

•Quality of air has serious impact on human health, plants, animals

•Sources of air pollution: transport, ‘stationary combustion’, power generation

•LPG is a clean conventional fuel

•LPG is non-toxic and has no impact on soil and water

•Autogas – immediate solution to improve air quality

•LPG reduces soot – also known as Black Carbon (BC)

BENEFITS – LPG IS A LOWER CARBON ENERGY SOURCE

“LPG emits about 20% less CO2 than heating oil and 50% less than coal”

LPG’s most common forms Propane and Butane are not considered as greenhouse gases by the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the scientific body of the United Nations

•LPG – recognised by governments for contribution to reduced greenhouse gas emissions

•LPG generates fewer carbon emissions than gasoline

•Carbon footprint of LPG is 20% lower than fuel oil and 50% lower than coal

•LPG is key to a clean and sustainable energy mix

•LPG has limited impact on the environment

•LPG helps reduce CO2 emissions and combat climate change

BENEFITS – LPG IS AN EFFICIENT ENERGY SOURCE

“LPG was found to have higher efficiency than natural gas fuelled distributed power generation which makes it ideal for rural homes and businesses”

As a cost-effective energy source, LPG can be up to five times more efficient than traditional fuels, resulting in less energy wastage and better use of our planet’s resources

•LPG is extremely versatile and portable•LPG can be transported using sea, rail or road •LPG is available in a wide variety of packaging and storage options•LPG is available in the remotest of areas, improving the lives of millions of citizens worldwide•LPG can provide a modern energy alternative to traditional cooking fuels in developing rural communities•LPG enhances the quality of rural life•LPG is available anywhere, anytime

BENEFITS – LPG IS AN INNOVATIVE ENERGY SOURCE

“LPG helps to reduce emissions of a typical house by 1.5 tonnes (around 25%) of CO2 per year”

As a modern and environmentally friendly energy source, LPG can play an integral role in the ongoing development of agriculture, replacing chemicals used in agricultural applications

•LPG complements renewable energy sources •LPG enables decentralised generation through small self-containing generators and micro combined heat and power•LPG is commonly used in agricultural sector for crop-drying, fuel of farm vehicles and insect repellent
