Reducing the carbon footprint, particularly in the energy sector, is an important factor in the global effort to improve air quality and favorably impact climate change. Propane has proven to be a positive contributor to the goal of lowering the carbon intensity given its versatile, clean burning qualities, and is a necessary part of the transition to a lower carbon economy. With advancements in new technologies for the production of propane from renewable sources, propane is on a pathway to carbon neutrality.
Through our Go Green with Suburban Propane initiatives, we are committed to educating consumers, legislators and other key stakeholders on the benefits of propane for a sustainable energy future, and also investing in the next generation of an even cleaner version of this great American energy source.

Propane: A Bridge to a Greener Future
Suburban Propane is committed to supporting the growth and innovation of propane as a sustainable energy source.
Did You Know?*
- Compared to diesel or gasoline, vehicles and equipment powered by propane can reduce air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, the federal government acknowledges propane as a cleaner alternative fuel to gasoline or diesel and recognizes that it can reduce emissions of harmful pollutants.
- Unlike methane, propane is not a greenhouse gas, and it vaporizes upon contact with air. This unique property means that, in the unlikely event of a leak or spill, propane will not contribute to climate change and will not contaminate soil or groundwater, making it a safer and more sustainable choice for the environment.
- The Go Green with Suburban Propane initiative highlights the cleaner-burning qualities of propane as a bridge fuel toward a sustainable energy future, while actively investing in innovative, renewable energy solutions, like renewable propane.

What is Renewable Propane?
- Renewable propane is chemically identical to traditional propane but is made from renewable sources like food and agricultural waste, as well as used cooking oil.
- It offers the same functionality as traditional propane, requiring no new equipment or training for on-road, off-road, or forklift applications.
- With the same reliability and portability, renewable propane further reduces carbon emissions, supporting sustainability goals.
