Tag: Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

Africa, a continent blessed with abundant natural resources, is home to many people reliant on traditional cooking methods. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), nearly four out of five Africans still use traditional cooking fuels. These fuels include wood and charcoal, which contribute to deforestation and carbon pollution.

The Department of Minerals Resources and Energy (DMRE) has launched its plan for The South African liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) market. It aims to grow the retail bottled gas market to reduce the pressure on electricity and to promote the domestic use of a healthier fuel, especially for heating and cooking.
