The Propane Education & Research Council released videos of manufacturers discussing their investment in developing and commercializing propane technologies.
The online video series, Clean American Innovation, goes behind the scenes at manufacturing facilities across America to capture footage of propane technologies in production.
Companies feature in the series include Freightliner Custom Chassis Corp., Generac, Kohler Engines and Power Systems, Marathon, Origin Engines, Power Solutions International and Roush CleanTech.
The videos also include testimonials on why clean, American propane is a strong business investment.
Technologies from these manufacturers benefit a variety of industry segments including agriculture, residential and commercial, on-road fleets, off-road, commercial landscaping, and industrial.
- Freightliner Custom Chassis builds propane-autogas-powered vehicles such as the Propane S2G, and explains how this technology benefits fleet managers.
- Generac engineers the EcoGen home backup generator, the first automatic backup generator warranted for off-grid use that runs on existing propane supply.
- Kohler Engines manufactures a closed-loop EFI propane engine for use in commercial lawn mowers
- Kohler Power Systems explains how their propane-powered mobile generators can reduce fuel costs by 15 to 20 percent.
- Marathon Engine Systems produces the Ecopower CHP system, which recovers heat for space and water heating as it produces electricity. The system increases energy efficiency while lowering operating costs and emissions.
- Origin Engines constructs engines for agriculture and industrial use.
- Power Solutions International constructs engines for industrial, agriculture, on-road, off-road and material handling uses.
- Roush CleanTech discusses the advantages propane autogas, which provides over conventional fuels and highlights major fleet customers who have adopted the company’s Ford vehicle offerings.
