NY, UNITED STATES, February 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) market was valued at USD 162.98 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow from USD 176.27 billion in 2026 to USD 273.24 billion by 2034, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.46% during the forecast period. Asia Pacific dominated the global market with a share of 48.34% in 2025. Liquefied petroleum gas is widely used for cooking, heating, industrial processing, power generation, and as an alternative automotive fuel. Its advantages, including lower carbon emissions, high energy efficiency, and ease of storage and transportation, make LPG an essential energy source across both developed and emerging economies.Liquefied petroleum gas, also known as propane, is a flammable hydrocarbon gas used commonly as a non-toxic, sulfur-free fuel. It comprises propane (C3H8) and butane (C4H10) with small concentrations of other hydrocarbons. The easy storage of LPG makes it a highly portable fuel and versatile source of energy for industries located in areas where pipe gas supply is not available. It is preferred over several other energy fuels since it burns with lower sulfur and carbon emissions and thus is environment-friendly. LP gas is commonly used in process industries to fuel the boilers for generating steam and boiling water. It is also used as a household cooking gas due to its high flash point and a clean fuel with low emission of GHGs as compared to other fuels.
