Propane autogas incentives
Federal programs and many propane state associations offer financial incentives like tax credits, rebates and grants to make the switch to propane for fleets and school buses even more economical. Contact your local propane dealer or CHS to explore options to fund your switch.
A safe fuel choice
Propane is non-toxic, with a noticeable odor for easy detection and dissipates quickly, preventing soil or water contamination. Tank designs are 20x more puncture resistant than gasoline tanks and equipped with built-in safety features.
