LPG ‘Makes Off-Grid Building Simpler’

elgas spons

From less costly land to cleaner air and more space, there are plenty of reasons Aussies make the move to rural areas and off-grid living.

But building off-grid comes with its own set of challenges—from being unable to connect to the primary power grid or finding it very expensive, builders continue to look for solutions.

In this article, Elgas outlines why LPG can be that solution.



LPG is a reliable fuel source for those building off-grid or in a region where new LNG connections are not possible.

With LPG able to be supplied almost anywhere, it allows you to deliver high-standard amenities to your customers wherever they are located.

Australia’s leading supplier of LPG since 1984, Elgas, delivers a reliable and convenient supply of gas for regional customers.

Renewable energy can be expensive, especially for rural areas where battery storage capacity has to be super-high and replaced about every seven years.

LPG is an affordable choice, especially for customers that are not able to make significant investments. It is still cleaner than other fuels delivering 50 per cent emission reductions compared to diesel and coal.

Optimise efficiency and comfort with LPG

Customers will have the flexibility and the ability to use the gas for hot water, cooking, heaters, refrigerators and generators.

Plus, it is ideal for a variety of business applications, such as the agriculture and hospitality industries.

Hot water normally consists of about 25 per cent of a home’s energy consumption. Supplementing with a gas hot water system, decreases dependency on electricity, saving on electricity that is required to run the home.

 Security and reliability are key priorities when it comes to energy supply, and LPG delivers both for maximum peace of mind.

Elgas has the largest LPG storage facility in the country, with over 45 branches around Australia. Plus, they provide over 60 days of coverage for the country.

Renewable LPG delivers a cleaner alternative for the future. It can be distributed through the existing supply chain, all while producing much lower amounts of carbon, particulates and NOx emissions than fossil fuels. Elgas strives to produce 100 per cent renewable LPG for everyday Australians by 2040.

Renewable LPG is a direct substitute for LPG, so no upgrades or changes to existing appliances and supply networks would be required.

One of the ancillary benefits of LPG is that it is a self-contained unit without any weather-related power outages.

For a reliable gas supply that is hidden, fire-safe and does not take up precious backyard space, opt for EasyGas DownUnder LPG Gas Bottles.

Designed by Elgas, these specially-created bottles are installed safely underground, eliminating the need to replace your gas bottles. As well as cutting-edge design, these downunder bottles are constructed from recycled and recyclable materials.

DownUnder is located as close as possible to the front boundary of a property for convenient delivery without any hassles. These bottles are protected by a fire-resistant lid that is placed in line with the lawn or garden.

Contact Elgas for more information on how to incorporate LPG supply into your business or home. Elgas aims to make the switch as seamless as possible.
