Environmental Benefits of Propane

Did you know that using propane is an excellent way to reduce your emissions while meeting your energy needs? Propane meets the energy needs of families and businesses with affordable, on-site storage and efficient appliances, equipment, and vehicles. And propane equipment generally lasts longer than electric appliances, making them more cost-effective too. Propane is ENERGY FOR EVERYONE.

Eastern believes it’s everyone’s responsibility to protect and conserve the Earth’s resources so that future generations can live safe, clean, and healthy lives. That’s why we specialize in propane-based energy solutions and why over 40% of our fleet is powered by propane. Propane is one of the world’s leading alternative fuels. You can find out more by checking out the Clean Air Act Amendments and the National Policy Act.

Here’s why propane makes so much sense: whether you use it to heat water for your family, power a farm, or run a fleet of mowers, propane produces significantly fewer emissions than diesel, gasoline, or even electricity. It’s true. By choosing propane, one of the cleanest energy sources available today, you’re making a change for the better. Propane is:

• CLEAN ENERGY TODAY, TOMORROW, AND INTO THE FUTURE

• LOW EMISSIONS AND BETTER FOR YOUR BOTTOM LINE
