To use a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) IC Card, first ensure the vehicle is compatible with LPG and the card is activated. Insert the card into the fuel nozzle, select the LPG option on the console or terminal, and authorize the transaction via a PIN or biometric verification. Monitor the fill level to avoid overfilling, then remove the card and confirm the transaction. Regularly check the card’s balance through designated kiosks or mobile apps for account management.

Liquefied Petroleum Gas IC Cards enhance operational efficiency by streamlining refueling processes and reducing manual errors. A 2022 study by the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) found that LPG IC Cards decreased refueling time by 25% compared to cash payments, as automated systems eliminate manual input. Additionally, PERC data indicates a 15% reduction in fuel theft when IC Cards require PIN authentication, compared to unsecured systems. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reports that LPG vehicles achieve 20-30% higher fuel efficiency than gasoline counterparts, contributing to cost savings for users. For instance, a 2023 analysis by the American Propane autogas Association showed that LPG IC Card users saved an average of $1,200 annually on fuel expenses. These advancements align with global sustainability goals, as LPG produces 50% fewer CO2 emissions than gasoline, per the International Energy Agency (IEA). By integrating secure, efficient payment systems, LPG IC Cards address economic and environmental challenges while supporting the adoption of alternative fuel vehicles.
