LPG
Compressed cooking gas
LPG stands for liquefied petroleum gas—fuel gases like propane and butane compressed into liquid form for storage and transport.
It powers vehicles, heats homes, and fuels cooking appliances, especially where natural gas pipelines don't reach: The cabin runs on LPG.
Also called LP gas.
