As energy resiliency and sustainability remain a top priority for engineers and specifiers, PERC encourages the industry to explore propane’s benefits — particularly how it complements renewable energy sources like wind and solar. 

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) recognizes Fisher Vineyards with the Energy For Everyone Hero Award for its environmental stewardship for six decades and counting.

Warner will lead initiatives to increase propane awareness and execute market strategies that support propane-powered equipment and appliances for commercial construction and operations.

Ruby’s Inn was awarded with an Energy for Everyone Hero Award by the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC).

Propane use at Ruby’s Inn has helped to eliminate 5,200 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent. 

 Propane is an ideal energy source for prime and secondary power generation because it’s a low-carbon energy option that is efficient and reliable, PERC says.

Whether driven by rigorous state and local regulatory mandates, or simply the desire to live more sustainably, the demand for a smaller carbon footprint and greater energy efficiency is growing in both the residential and commercial building and renovation markets.

Hale will help grow awareness of propane’s technological versatility in the commercial and residential construction industries. 

Hybrid systems that run on propane and solar can be tailored to a project’s unique needs, providing lower first costs and reduced ongoing energy costs and emissions.

Electrification is often presented as a strategy for reducing carbon emissions, but the truth is, it’s not practical to rely on electricity alone because no single energy source can solve the long-term challenges we face.
