Propane is made up of carbon and hydrogen atoms and is a byproduct of natural gas processing. It can also be made from crude oil refining although most of Canada's supply is produced from natural gas. Propane as a gas and can be liquified with pressure, making it easy to store and transport in liquid form. For example, the propane tanks used for grilling are filled with liquid propane. The liquid, once released from the container, reverts to its gaseous form. For this reason, propane is often referred to as Liquified Pretoleum Gas (LPG).

Propane is the preferred fuel choice for many Canadians due to the abundance of LPG in Canada. It has a wide range of applications, powering household essentials like furnaces, kitchens, pools, and power generators. Additionally, it fuels various commercial operations in sectors such as construction, mining, and agriculture, and is also used in efficient propane-powered vehicles.
