Pune Gas – Grand Inauguration of Tamil Nadu’s First Exclusive LPG Systems Experience Centre in Chennai
Chennai, August 2024: Pune Gas is proud to launch Tamil Nadu’s very first exclusive LPG systems experience centre ‘Pune Gas Experience Center – Chennai’ in the presence of Chief Guest, Mr. A.X. Alexander IPS (Retd. DGP, Tamil Nadu), Dr. Cynthia Alexander (M.B.B.S, MD, D.O.G) and Guests of Honor, Mr. Jaisinh Sampat (Chairman, Pune Gas), Mr. Jesal Sampat (Executive Director, Pune Gas), Mr. Bhaven Udeshi (Director – Sales & Marketing, Pune Gas) & Mr. Arvind Noel Xavier Leo (Head of Business & Franchise Owner, Chennai, Pune Gas).
15th August 2024 marks a new chapter in the growth journey of Pune Gas with the opening of its experience centre in Chennai at Kilpauk Garden road, the first of its kind in Chennai, Tamil Nadu and the second one in India after Pune. This initiative is driven by Mr. Arvind Noel Xavier Leo, the Head of Pune Gas Chennai business and also the franchise owner for the Chennai region.
The experience centre features the flagship Smart LPG System called LPGenius which is designed to overcome common hurdles faced by HoReCa users, such as cylinder sweating and freezing, the newly launched industrial system GasTrain (also known as a Pressure Regulating System (PRS), is an essential component in gas distribution networks) and a host of other solutions and products for users of commercial gas. Here, a customer walks in with a vague idea of what he wants and walks out with complete clarity and perfect solutions for what he really needs for his business.
The inception of the LPGenius Smart LPG System and India’s first LPG-Powered Backup Generator was fueled by the dedication of the Pune Gas team to meeting the distinct requirements of the hospitality industry and commercial users of LPG.
According to reports, the LPG consumption in India reached 30,916 TMT (Thousand Metric Tonnes) in FY 2022-23, Out of which 83% is used in the Domestic cooking segment and about 16% is used in the Industrial & Commercial segment, leading to a huge gap in commercial segment because industries are still using traditional polluting fossil fuels like Diesel, Kerosene, Furnace Oil and Wood. The number of LPG distributors across India in 2023 stands at 25,385 making India the 3rd largest LPG consumer in the world.
As of 1.04.2023, Tamil Nadu alone has 6.08 lakh commercial & industrial LPG customers!
LPG users usually lose 3 – 4 kg of LPG in a cylinder on a daily basis because of the cylinder “freezing” problem. This is because of the rampant use of the 19kg commercial cylinder which is not ideal or rather insufficient for the manufacturing process or even for restaurants and hotels. A 19 kg cylinder cannot reach as much gas as required by the burners and hence the cylinder freezes. We propagate the use of efficient LOT (Liquid Off-Take) 47.5 kg cylinders with our world class system LPGenius which is Made In India – it is proven to improve efficiency and give savings from 20 – 30% on a company’s profitability just by the correct use of LPG fuel with a smart system.
Mr. Jesal Sampat, Executive Director of Pune Gas says, “At Pune Gas, we realized our mission to empower businesses to adopt cleaner methods of manufacturing needed a catalyst that could change the way commercial and industrial users access our systems and solutions. The idea was to democratize the use of our systems, standardize them for multiple industries and eventually make them more accessible. This gave birth to Pune Gas Experience Centres, a gamechanger in the commercial gas products and solutions segment that focuses on enhanced ownership experience, accurate information delivery and grass root awareness of gas systems and solutions for small and large businesses. While electricity is a commonly used energy source, it is expensive and not the most preferred source of fuel for industries, particularly when compared to LPG. The cost of electricity in industrial use varies between Rs 8 and Rs 15 per unit whereas the LPG could cost Rs 4-5 per unit.”
Mr. Arvind Noel Xavier Leo, Head of Business & Franchise Owner, Chennai of Pune Gas, added “We are happy and proud to announce the launch of Tamil Nadu’s first Exclusive LPG Systems Experience Centre. The new Pune Gas Experience Center in Chennai was dearly missed all this while for something as crucial as the fuel and it’s systems that create wonderful gastronomical experiences. Right from basic spares and components to vaporizers and the recently launched LPGenius, the Pune Gas Experience Centre in Chennai showcases everything a professional and industries need for their business as far as heating systems are concerned.”
In the future, Pune Gas remains dedicated to innovation, with plans to introduce new products tailored to the evolving requirements of the HoReCa industry and commercial users.
