How the Clean Heat Standard Will Impact Commercial Industries

So many businesses in the community depend on propane to keep their operations running. Essential businesses rely on propane for critical backup power during power outages to keep their doors open during storms and other disasters.

Without access to affordable, clean energy like propane, the business community will face increased operational costs, disruptions in quality, the loss of critical backup power, and the expense of having to invest in less environmentally sustainable equipment. These new challenges will impact state residents, from business owners, to customers, students, and patients.
