WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Propane Education & Research Council is encouraging business owners to take advantage of year-end tax deductions by upgrading equipment. 

Incentives are available to help offset the upfront costs of new propane equipment in exchange for performance data and customer feedback through the following PERC programs:

  • The Propane Farm Incentive Program offers up to $5,000 on eligible propane irrigation engines, grain dryers, ag heaters, generators and more.
  • The Propane Mower Incentive Program, now extended through March 31, 2015, is offering double incentive dollars, up to $2,000, toward the purchase of a new propane-powered mower, and up to $1,000 toward a qualified conversion.
  • The Propane Heat & Power Incentive Program offers financial incentives of up to $10,000 for eligible propane-powered products, such as standby generators and combined heat and power (CHP) systems.

PERC recently released a suite of cost calculator tools, available at propanecalculator.com, which help producers estimate fuel savings and ROI for propane irrigation engines, work trucks and commercial mowers in comparison with their running on conventional fuels like diesel and gasoline. The calculators are available for use online, as a desktop tool and as mobile applications for phones and tablets available in app stores for iOS and Android devices.
