LP Gas’ yearlong Propane Fuels America series takes a deep dive into how each state benefits from the propane industry. Here’s our report on Wisconsin.
Total odorized propane demand (2019): 488 million gallons
U.S. rank for gallons sold: 6
Gallon sales trend: Wisconsin sold 346 million gallons of propane in 2017 and 488 million gallons in 2019, an increase of 41 percent. The upswing is due in part to the state’s growing transportation market, according to Emma Corning, executive director of the Wisconsin Propane Gas Association.
