Via the Propane Mower Incentive Program, more than 1,000 landscape contractors in 39 states saved $648,500 on their purchases of qualified propane-fueled mowers in 2013.
Managed by the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC), the program offers a financial incentive to those who purchase and operate qualified propane equipment, and provide feedback and performance data to PERC on the equipment. Participants can receive up to $1,000 for the purchase of a new mower and up to $500 for a qualifying mower conversion.
There are now about 30 propane-fueled mower models from 17 original equipment manufactures eligible for the incentive. A single applicant can apply for incentives for up to 25 mowers. Converted mowers must meet certain eligibility requirements and the conversion kit must not avoid the OEM’s warranty on the engine. A customer can apply for the incentive on up to 25 converted mowers.
