What is Propane?

Because of propane, businesses that rely on fuel (gasoline, diesel, natural gas) can invest in a cleaner, hotter-burning alternative without breaking the bank. Propane, a form of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), is a clean, efficient, and adaptable energy source. Produced during natural gas processing and oil refining, it serves as an alternative fuel option for businesses. Known for its clean combustion, affordability, and dependability, propane is commonly used for heating, cooking, and powering various applications across multiple industries.

How Do Businesses Utilize Propane?

There are more viable commercial applications for propane than you might think. For one, propane is replacing gasoline for many municipalities and transportation-focused organizations that need to fuel their vehicle fleets. However, that’s only one way propane has made a difference for commercial and agricultural clients across the Midwest. The industries that can best utilize propane include:

  • Agriculture – Few industries rely on propane more than the agricultural industry. Farmers use propane to power irrigation pumps, grain dryers, and heating systems for greenhouses and livestock facilities. They also use propane as a power source for backup generators or fueling additional machinery around the farm.
  • Transportation – While propane isn’t generally considered a vehicle fuel, it absolutely can be. For businesses that rely on large fleets of vehicles (buses, moving vans, delivery trucks, municipal vehicles, etc.), propane is an excellent alternative to gasoline and diesel, helping vehicles go further while using less fuel.
  • Construction – Propane can power many of the tools and equipment construction companies use. From fueling temporary heaters to machines like forklifts or scissor lifts, propane is exceptionally effective. Propane-powered equipment also runs quieter and helps companies comply with environmental regulations.
  • Hospitality – Restaurants, hotels, and catering services can all use propane for cooking, water heating, and facility heating. Propane allows for the precise control of heat in all of these applications. This means more even heating for cooking and more consistent interior temperatures throughout your building, with excellent energy savings to boot.
  • Manufacturing – Because manufacturing covers a broad range of businesses, there isn’t only one thing propane is used for. For manufacturing facilities, depending on what’s being produced, propane is utilized to power ovens and furnaces that make glass, boilers that assist with paper and textile production, heating to warm manufacturing floors, etc.
  • And More – Warehousing, landscaping, aviation, logistics and more—the number of industries that can take advantage of propane’s clean-burning, energy-efficient power is endless! If your business requires consistent access to propane, Yoder Oil has you covered.
