PROPANE POWER GENERATION

Standby generators kick in in a matter of seconds, ensuring critical building systems like lighting, heating or cooling, and refrigeration are never disrupted by power outages. These permanently-installed units are cleaner, quieter, and more efficient than diesel-fired models. And since propane doesn't degrade over time like diesel does, propane-powered generators are always ready to save the day.

Propane is transforming electric vehicle charging by powering clean, reliable, resilient, on-site solutions. Propane-powered EV charging systems don't rely on grid electricity, so they can be placed in even the most remote areas. And propane systems are less costly and can be set up within days, putting reliable recharging in reach without the infrastructure investment that traditional EV charging systems require.

A propane-powered Combined Heat & Power unit (CHP) is an engine powering a generator to produce electricity. It then uses the heat that's generated to heat your home and water. Compact and quiet, CHPs are ideal for homes, multi-family dwellings, and small businesses. Not only are they incredibly efficient, propane CHP systems contribute far less harmful emissions that negatively affect human health compared with electric grid power. Keep exploring to learn more.

When you need power on a temporary basis, propane towable and portable generators have you covered. You’ll find these units hard at work powering tools and equipment on job sites, as well as protecting homes and businesses after power outages. Towable units are typically more powerful than the smaller portable generators, though a portable unit can power almost as much as a standby generator. Propane-powered portable generators are 98 percent cleaner than diesel-fueled equivalents.

Another power option that’s seeing increased use is the microgrid: A miniature power grid system designed to efficiently distribute power to nearby homes or buildings. While a microgrid’s primary power supply is the main electrical grid, it can also operate independently should the main grid fail, thanks to renewables such as solar or wind, as well as backup energy sources including propane. As a result, a microgrid is more resilient, as well as affordable, sustainable, and safe.
