May 5, 2014: PERC Offers Builders up to $1,500 to Build Propane Homes
Initiative Seeks to Gather Data about Operation of Propane Equipment for Space Heating, Water Heating, and More
WASHINGTON — As part of its effort to research, develop, and demonstrate the effectiveness of propane technology, the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) is offering a monetary incentive to select qualifying builders who build new homes that follow the Propane Energy Pod model and include propane equipment for space heating, water heating, and other heating and power applications.
PERC noted it has conducted and published independent third-party research that shows the projected increase in energy efficiency, performance, comfort, and carbon-emission reductions of Pod homes when compared with all-electric counterparts. The Propane Energy Pod Builder Incentive Program is designed to promote the construction of Pod homes in the United States.
