The environmental benefits of LPG

As well as saving you money - LPG can also help the environment.

LPG powered vehicles are far less polluting than their petrol-powered equivalents.

LPG reduces greenhouse emissions substantially, and is widely acknowledged as a green fuel. e.g. BP Autogas has been certified as 'Greenhouse Friendly' by Australian Greenhouse Office.

Studies show that if a modern vehicle is converted to LPG, exhaust gas emissions are reduced as follows:

• 34% reduction in oxides of nitrogen
• 15% reduction in carbon dioxide (the most important of the greenhouse gases which are causing long-term climate change).
• Virtually zero evaporative emissions of hydrocarbons

• Carbon monoxide - 50-60% reduction in tailpipe emissions
• Smog - 30-40% reduction in tailpipe emissions
• Sulphur dioxide - potentially zero emissions
• Air toxins - potentially zero emissions
