Propane Heat and Power for Your Farm

Economic, efficient, clean energy for your farm

Why Fuel Your Farm with Propane?

Propane is a safe, clean-burning, green energy. It costs less than other fuel sources, and propane farm equipment has high-efficiency engines that offer lower maintenance costs without compromising performance, power or productivity.  Propane provides the versatility you need to dry your crops; heat your house, barn or greenhouse; power your equipment, vehicles or mowers; or produce combined heat and power.

How Does Propane Stack Up to Diesel?

 

   

PROPANE

   

DIESEL

Cost

  

Propane costs up to 40% less than diesel.

 

Historically, diesel is 40-50% more expensive and transportation costs to remote sites can be much higher than propane

Emissions

  

Propane minimizes environmental impact with as much as 15% fewer emissions and 98% less particulate matter than diesel.

  

Diesel contains higher levels of Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHGs) particulate matter and sulphur.

Environmental Risks

  

Propane vaporizes when released, eliminating the risk of contaminating water, ground or air.

  

Diesel risks include costly environmentally damaging spills and fuel contamination from long-term storage.

Lower Maintenance Costs

  

Propane burns cleaner to reduce wear and tear on equipment, which results in less service and lower maintenance costs.

  

Diesel is not as clean burning as propane. That means machinery could require more frequent maintenance, resulting in higher costs.

Orchard and Vineyard Heating

Propane provides a clean-burning, efficient option for orchard and vine heating and eliminates the risks associated with soil or water contamination from diesel spills. Its high heat content along with the heater's design substantially increases the amount of heat that radiates directly into your crops for the best in crop protection against cold and frost.
