If the 19th century was shaped by coal and the 20th century by oil, the 21st century, energy experts predict, will be shaped by natural gas and propane. Here are some of the reasons why.

Gas reduces our dependency on crude oil. By using natural gas or propane, you’re doing your part to lessen Hawaii’s dependency on oil and electricity—without sacrificing convenience or comfort.

Gas has a wide range of applications. There’s a vast selection of appliances available that run on gas energy: water heaters, cooking ranges, clothes dryers, grills, lighting, and more. Overall, gas appliances have many desirable features and options.

Gas is a reliable energy source. The Gas Company has a continual supply of natural gas and propane to meet Hawaii’s gas energy needs. With gas, you won’t need to worry about running out of energy. You can even continue to operate your gas appliances throughout an electric power outage.

Gas could increase your home value. Incorporating gas energy in your home can be a beneficial investment. More homeowners are recognizing how gas affords them a luxurious lifestyle and can increase real estate values.
