In 2009, the WLPGA carried out a trilogy of studies to demonstrate the benefits of LP Gas in the following areas:
LP Gas: An Energy Solution for a Low Carbon World
LP Gas: Efficient Energy for a Modern World
LP Gas: Healthy Energy for a Changing World
LP Gas plays a valuable role in meeting the world’s energy needs. In the future LP Gas has the opportunity to enhance this role by also helping to combat climate change.
The clean burning nature of LP Gas makes it an ideal substitute for solid fuels in domestic cooking and heating applications. Household solid fuel use, overwhelmingly concentrated in developing countries, accounts for up to 30% of black carbon emissions worldwide according to some statistics. Switching to LP Gas could lower global greenhouse gas emissions as well as help to diminish deforestation thus preserving the trees needed to maintain a global climatic equilibrium and combat climate change.
LP Gas used in combination with renewable sources can improve energy reliability while reducing the overall life-cycle costs. LP Gas is portable, making it a perfect complement to distributed renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and wave energy (and soon fuel cells), thereby reducing our reliance on centrally produced electricity.
LP Gas produces lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional energy supplies in every application it is used, from stationary applications such as water heating, space heating, cooking and industrial boilers to transportation applications. Any industry can switch to clean-burning LP Gas as a means to meet greenhouse gas targets.
LP Gas can claim to be ahead of its time, for its clean-burning, low-carbon advantage is available at once, so that even using today’s technology, most industries can exceed Kyoto greenhouse gas reduction targets by switching to LP Gas. In most cases LP Gas can make major and immediate contributions to delivering real greenhouse gasses emissions reductions.
