The Ohio Propane Education & Research Council partnered with the Ohio Propane Gas Association and Clean Fuels Ohio to offer $1,000 rebates for propane autogas vehicles and lawn mowers. Each organization may redeem up to five rebates for five vehicles for a total savings of $5,000. The rebate does not cover equipment or vehicle conversions.
“Even with today’s relatively low gas prices, propane continues to be a more economical choice. Propane is also a more environmentally friendly fuel than the traditional gasoline used in most vehicle and lawn equipment fleets,” said Sam Spofforth, executive director of Clean Fuels Ohio.
“Propane autogas mowers are the smart decision for a landscaper who is looking for that clean edge over the competition, and with this rebate more American-made propane can be used to fuel our vehicles,” said Eric Sears for the Ohio Propane Gas Association. “Propane autogas mowers cut the cost of maintenance and overhead so landscapers can focus on their customers.”
According to the organizations, the benefits of using propane instead of gasoline include reduced fuel spills due to propane’s closed fuel system, reduced labor expenses and the opportunity to lock in propane fuel prices.
Businesses wishing to take advantage of the rebate offer can download the application and submit it to the Ohio Propane and Gas Association.
