Alternative Fuels Tax Credit
Interest in propane as an alternative transportation fuel stems from its domestic availability, high-energy density, clean-burning qualities, and relatively low cost. It is the world’s third most common transportation fuel, behind gasoline and diesel, and is considered an alternative fuel under the Energy Policy Act of 1992.
For more information see IRS Form 4136, Credit for Federal Tax Paid on Fuels.
