Some tourisms that are currently being used in the parks and gardens service for daily tasks and of great use such as the management of waste and its variants: remains of the lawn cutting, pruning of shrubs, the realization of balonas or, among others, the movement of different machinery from one point to another in the municipality.
This fuel, which has been bet by the City Council and the concessionaire company STV Gestin, is 36% less CO2 emissions than coal, 15% less than using gasoline and 10% also below if we compare it with a diesel .
In addition, recalls Fernandez, is a saving for the municipal coffers because the same service produces a saving of four cents per kilometer with respect to gasoline (according to the report of the Spanish Association of LPG Operators).
But there are more advantages for citizens such as halving the noise produced by a diesel car, added to a lower maintenance cost compared to gasoline cars, since it has less vibrations.
