>From what I understand here the German government has no tax on LPG
until 2018 where over 80 cents on normal gas goes to the government.
For this reason
the scales are massively tipped in the direction of LPG and why it is
taking off
here.
The BTU density that I understand is that I need 1.2 litres LPG for 1
Litre of gasoline. So it still makes sense (here!)
Its too bad our government can't do this as well instead of getting
into fuels that
cost more to make than they give (Ethanol).
