Share
Content:
In recent years, many companies and individuals are considering the conversion from diesel to LPG for heating and energy production. This choice not only guarantees significant economic savings, but also offers environmental and operational advantages. LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is an efficient and versatile solution, ideal for those looking for a more sustainable and economical alternative to traditional fuels.
Here are the top 10 benefits of converting from diesel to LPG.
1. Saving on Fuel Costs
LPG is generally cheaper than diesel, with a cost reduction of up to 30% . This advantage is particularly significant for companies with high energy consumption, such as industries and agricultural activities.
2. Lower Polluting Emissions
Switching to LPG reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 20% compared to diesel and almost eliminates fine particulate matter . This helps improve air quality and reduces environmental impact.
3. Greater Energy Efficiency
LPG has a higher calorific value than diesel, ensuring superior performance and cleaner combustion. This translates into better energy use and less waste.
4. No Risk of Freezing in Winter
Unlike diesel, which can solidify at low temperatures, LPG remains in gaseous form and ensures optimal operation even in harsh climatic conditions.
5. Reduced Maintenance and Longer Life of the Systems
LPG systems require less maintenance than diesel ones, as they produce less residue and carbon deposits. This means lower operating costs and longer life of the appliances.
6. Guaranteed Supply Even in Non-Methanized Areas
LPG is an ideal solution for areas not served by the methane network, such as isolated rural or industrial areas. Thanks to the possibility of installing LPG tanks, supply is always guaranteed.
7. Incentives and Tax Breaks
In Italy, there are incentives available for converting from diesel to LPG, including tax deductions and state contributions for energy efficiency. You can take advantage of the Conto Termico and incentives for reducing emissions.
8. Greater Security and Price Stability
LPG is a safe fuel and generally has a more stable price than petroleum derivatives. This allows for more precise planning of energy costs without being subject to strong market fluctuations.
9. Versatility of Use
LPG can be used for domestic, industrial and agricultural heating , but also for the production of electricity via generators or cogenerators, making it an extremely versatile solution.
10. Easy Conversion of Existing Systems
Switching from diesel to LPG is a simple process: you can adapt existing boilers with specific modifications or install new LPG systems without high costs. In addition, Ecogenera offers complete solutions for the conversion, including the supply of LPG tanks for agricultural, industrial and domestic use .
Conclusion
Converting a system from diesel to LPG is an advantageous choice in many respects: economic, environmental and operational. Whether it is a company or a private home, LPG represents a cleaner, more efficient and sustainable solution.
