LPG is the cleanest burning rural fossil fuel available and undoubtedly the most versatile.
LPG is a low carbon emitting hydrocarbon fuel available in rural areas, emitting 19 percent less CO2 per kWh than oil, 30 percent less than coal, and more than 50 percent less than coal-generated electricity distributed via the grid.
LPG installations are generally found where a connection to the national grid mains gas supply is not possible, especially in rural areas. LPG is generally used in such cases as it is the most versatile and cleanest burning fossil fuel.
LPG emissions are low in carbon, emitting 19 percent less CO2 per kWh than oil, 30 percent less than coal, and more than 50 percent less than coal-generated electricity distributed via the grid.
LPG has a very wide variety of uses, it can serve as fuel for cooking, central heating and to water heating and is a particularly cost-effective and efficient way to heat off-grid homes.
Cooking
LPG is used for cooking in many countries for economic reasons, for convenience or because it is the preferred fuel source.
If LPG is required to be used on a burner designed for natural gas, some modifications will need to be made, this is because LPG has a higher calorific value than natural gas so cannot be simply substituted. LPG can be mixed with air to produce a synthetic natural gas (SNG) that can be easily substituted. LPG/air mixing ratios average 60/40.
It’s important to get your LPG installation done by a qualified person as LPG is considered instantly dangerous to health and life due to risk of fire and explosions. You want your installation to be safe as possible.
