LPG

Centria Reti Gas distributes and sells LPG via its network, offering safe and cost-effective service to various types of users. It is a valid alternative for homes, businesses and communities not located near natural gas pipelines.
Its network extends over 136 km in 50 municipalities in seven provinces of Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna. It serves 5,640 customers through 125 facilities and 225 storage depots. According to a survey conducted by the industry authority (AEEG), the LPG service offered by Centria Reti Gas is number-three in the national rankings (up from number-four in 2010).

WHAT WE DO LPG

Supply of LPG for home use through a centralised network similar to its natural gas counterpart. This is the best way of meeting the energy needs of both large and small communities located at some distance from natural gas pipelines, from a neighbourhood to a municipality, from a private allotment to a tourist resort.
Centria Reti Gas designs, builds and manages LPG service using underground pipe networks, for which it offers 24-hour technical support service, from storage to the end user's meter.
Design takes account of local environmental characteristics and is harmoniously integrated into nature and the local landscape. Tanks are located on the perimeter of residential areas and are buried to ensure that their visual impact is kept to a minimum.
