A Cleaner Future

New England Propane has an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau for good reason

Propane may be the most versatile fuel on the planet. It can be used to keep homes and businesses warm, heat water, fuel on-road and off-road vehicles, and much more. Perhaps most importantly, propane has a lower carbon intensity and is significantly cleaner than other fuels.

Renewable propane, which can be made from plant material, food waste and recyclable plastics, has the same chemical makeup as nonrenewable propane, which means not only is it cleaner, but it is future-proof as well, and will become more commercially available in the coming years.

And, propane is not only a clean-air fuel, but it also keeps working when the electricity goes out. As founder and owner John Barry The Third says, "It really is a great energy source and solution, and we are proud to be able to offer and support it."

New England Propane was founded in 1988 in Greenwich, formerly called Greenwich Propane. Barry is a Greenwich native, having grown-up here. Fun fact about Barry? He is an accomplished world-class sailor who has sailed around the world one and a half times, as well as an avid skier and sportsman.

The company provides propane and customized propane solutions for all residential and commercial applications, servicing all of Fairfield County, parts of Litchfield, New Haven, Westchester and Putnam counties in Connecticut, and portions of Putnam and Dutchess counties in New York. 

Their business approach is simple: "We have two overriding principles in the way New
England Propane does business," Barry says. "We provide exceptional service every chance we get, and we treat everyone the way we would wish to be treated ourselves."
