Cooking gas usage hit 413,960 tonnes last year, a record high as consumers defied rising prices of the commodity, offering a major lift to the State ambitions of making the commodity the number one cooking fuel.
An analysis of official data from the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) shows that last year’s consumption was a rise of 14.8 percent from the 360,590 tonnes that homes, businesses and institutions used in 2023.
