Pixie Gas provides liquefied petroleum gas in the United States and also
supports the use of wind power, solar power, and other alternative energies. Why
LPG? - LPG is an approved alternative fuel listed in both the Clean Air Act of
1990 and the National Energy Policy Act of 1992 and 2005. - When burned, LPG
emits less than half the greenhouse gas emissions as an equivalent amount of
electricity produced by coal-fired power plants (Energetics, 2007). - LPG emits
less greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline, diesel, and electricity in many
applications (Energetics, 2007). - Compared to gasoline, LPG yields 12% less
carbon dioxide, about 20% less nitrous oxide, and as much as 60% less carbon
monoxide. (World LP Gas Association, January 2003, and California Energy
Commission, January 2003) - A traditional LPG water heater emits 60% fewer
greenhouse gas emissions than its electric counterpart. - LPG-fueled radiant
heat cuts down on dust and allergens in a home since there is no need for a fan
or blower.
