How Propane benefits cannabis production

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) has added a new page to its website focused on helping cannabis growers learn how propane can be a reliable source for greenhouse heat and power generation.

At Propane for Cannabis Growing, visitors will learn about the advantages of propane-powered greenhouses and find resources explaining how propane is an efficient, clean, and abundant energy source.

"The new website makes it easier for producers to gain access to information about propane specifically for the cannabis industry," says Mike Newland, Director of Agriculture Business Development at PERC. "Propane is ideal for any greenhouse heat or power generation needs, but it has many unique qualities that make it especially beneficial to the cannabis industry. The website features facts, videos, and FAQs to make it easier for cannabis growers to quickly access the information needed to determine if propane is the right choice for their operation."

There are many benefits for greenhouses to run on propane. It is a very low-emission energy source, making it plant-safe and clean for a greener operation. Propane building heat also delivers the consistent, precise temperatures needed to grow healthy plants. Plus, propane generators let growers power greenhouses anywhere, without being restricted by the power grid. Propane power generators are also reliable, avoiding the risk of downtime from storms or blackouts.
