Propane Autogas Efficient, Versatile, and Environmentally Friendly
Propane Autogas is simply using Propane to fuel vehicles in an on road vehicle application. While many in the US are unfamiliar with using Propane as a fuel, worldwide Propane is the 3rd most common fuel. It is a proven clean and affordable alternative to gas, diesel, and electric.
The Benefits of Autogas
1
Environmental Impact: One of the primary reasons for the growing adoption of autogas is its reduced environmental impact. Vehicles running on autogas produce significantly lower emissions of harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter compared to those powered by gasoline or diesel. Propane is the cleanest of all the fossil fuels, C3H8, and is considered a clean fuel by the 1990 Clean Air Act.
2
Economic Advantages: Autogas is more affordable than traditional fuels, making it an attractive option for consumers and businesses. While pricing on traditional fuels swings up and down without reason, Propane Autogas pricing is much more stable and predictable. The cost savings are especially pronounced for fleets, where the lower price of Autogas, combined with reduced maintenance costs, can lead to substantial financial benefits. Autogas vehicles tend to have a longer engine life and lower maintenance requirements due to the cleaner combustion process, which results in less engine wear and fewer oil changes.

Safety: Propane is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and has a lower risk of spillage compared to gasoline. It also has a narrower flammability range, making it safer to handle and use. In the unlikely event of a leak, propane dissipates quickly into the atmosphere, reducing the risk of fire or explosion. Vehicles using autogas are equipped with robust safety features, including pressure relief valves and automatic shut-off mechanisms, further enhancing their safety profile.
