Objective: Provide market context for the Stage-Gate
process and Upcoming Strategic Planning Discussion
 Identify market opportunities
•
•
•
Market share
Number of units/customers in marketplace
Unit gallon sales
 Determine potential PERC impact in key market segments
•
•
Assess share of market needed to reach identified potential.
Translate changes in market share to new unit sales and customer captures.
 Calculate potential PERC impact on propane gallon sales.
•
•
Impacts utilize PERC data and market information where available.
Where not available, ICF utilized reasonable assumptions subject to PERC
review.
 Inform the PERC Stage-Gate process and strategic planning efforts.

What do these Market Wedges Represent?
 Market wedges represent assessment of the size of potential propane market
opportunities.
•
Market wedge segmentation based on market opportunities identified by PERC
staff and Advisory Committees.
 Amount of each wedge ultimately achieved will depend on:
•
•
•
The level of investment by PERC and the propane industry
Market conditions
Regulatory environment.
 Next steps in market wedge analysis
•
•
Extension to other market segments, programs, and new technologies
Risk-adjusted cost-benefit analysis
 The PERC strategic planning process will determine how resources are
allocated to target each of these wedges.

Commercial Sector Challenges and
Opportunities
 Second largest propane business segment.
•
•
20% of existing odorized propane market.
10% of the total commercial floor space is served by propane for one or more application.
 Significant opportunities to increase propane applications in buildings
currently using propane.
 Commercial fuel oil demand: 3.6 billion gallons of propane equivalence.
•
•
Commercial fuel oil market is expected to decline steadily over time due to cost and
environmental issues.
Large existing propane customer base (cooking & water heating) using fuel oil for heat.
 Diverse market less reliant on space heating.
•
Wide variety of different customer types, resulting in smaller discrete markets that are harder
to evaluate and target effectively.
 Growth in propane demand from future commercial customers likely to be
offset by:
•
•
Price induced conservation.
Fuel switching from propane to electricity (and other fuels) by existing customers.

Propane Engine Fuel Challenges
 New technologies threaten propane in some markets.
•
Electricity/hybrids in forklift market.
 Propane first cost issues remain significant.
•
Propane engines face an economy of scale issue.
 In many markets, propane advantages are driven by government policy and
legislation, which is uncertain.
 In diesel markets, propane must overcome positive perceptions of diesel
engine reliability and power characteristics.
 Propane faces cultural and infrastructure issues in new markets.
•
•
Changes in business operating practices needed to integrate propane equipment.
Changes in marketing and service practices needed to sell propane equipment.
25
Market Trends Driving Propane Engine
Fuel Opportunities
 Environmental and energy security concerns provide opportunities for
propane on- and off-road equipment.
•
•
Energy and tax legislation may provide significant competitive advantage to propane
applications
Current focus on “green” energy favors propane.
 Diesel fuel costs are expected to increase more rapidly than gasoline and
propane prices.
•
International supply/demand balance likely to drive diesel fuel prices up more than propane or
gasoline prices.
 Diesel engine costs have increased dramatically due to new NOx emissions
requirements.
•
•
•
Up to $10,000 per vehicle for new heavy duty vehicles.
From $4,000 to $6,000 per vehicle for new medium duty vehicles.
$0.15 per gallon of diesel consumed for urea used in new NOx control systems.

Final Thoughts

The propane market wedges could add more than 500 million gallons per
year of propane demand by 2015 if opportunities are fully realized.

The propane market wedges represent:
•
•
•
A look at propane markets identifying the most important opportunities where PERC and
propane industry programs may have an impact.
A framework for defining market/business opportunities.
A first step (but nowhere near the last step) in the Stage-Gate process.

The wedges have not yet been evaluated for risk or cost effectiveness.

The wedges are not (yet) PERC targets or recommendations, but do
provide an assessment of the size of the potential market opportunities.
