Liquid gases play a vital role in the path to decarbonisation, especially in off-grid and rural areas

Liquid gases provide rural homes with efficient and reliable heating

Liquid gases provide affordable lower carbon mobility to millions of European citizens

Liquid gases are a key energy source to help decarbonise industrial processes that require a high degree of precision and flexibility.

Liquid Gas Europe

Liquid Gas Europe is a nonprofit association that represents the voice of the liquid gas industry in Brussels. We advocate for a safe and stable regulatory environment to ensure a just energy transition for all.

Key benefits of liquid gases

Versatile

Used in off-grid heating, industrial applications and vehicles, liquid gases have more than 1000 applications in Europe.

Renewable

Increasingly available in Europe, renewable liquid gases are a ‘drop in’ solution, which can be used in existing appliances.

Cleaner

Liquid gases have low particle emissions, low NOx emissions, and low sulphur content, resulting in significantly lower air pollution compared to some other off-grid energy sources.

Portable

Liquid gases are available and can be easily transported to consumers even in most remote areas of Europe.

Secure

Due to its diverse origins and ease of transport, liquid gases offer a reliable alternative where other energy sources cannot reach their end destination.

Lower carbon

LPG emits 21% less CO2 than conventional fuels. Renewable liquid gases can lower the carbon footprint of conventional liquid gases by around 80%.

What are Liquid Gases?

Liquid gases are an energy source derived from natural gas, oil production, or renewable sources.

Why Liquid Gases?

As an immediately available lower carbon solution, liquid gases can play a key role in Europe’s path towards decarbonisation.

  • Liquid gases cover the energy needs of 20 million EU citizens and 700 000 businesses in rural and off-grid areas, and should therefore remain affordable and accessible to all. 20% 20%

  • The European production of liquid gases can meet 76% of current European demand. 76% 76%

  • Autogas is the number one alternative fuel in the EU with over 8.5 million vehicles in circulation. 8.5% 8.5%

Our Priorities

Liquid gases are a key piece of the energy puzzle and require an appropriate legislative framework. Thanks to liquid gases, millions of European citizens, particularly those living in off-grid rural areas, can take part in the energy transition.

Our latest campaigns

Liquid Gas Europe develops dedicated campaigns to raise awareness about key issues that could impact Europe’s energy transition.
