Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) has developed a new LPG burner that is more efficient than its predecessors. The improved burner is 10% more efficient which could save households up to Rs 7,000 crore if they were to replace their current burners with the new ones, according to BPCL’s Director Refineries, Sanjay Khanna. He added that if households switch to the efficient burner, they could save one LPG cylinder annually. The new burner is comparable in cost to the existing one, making it a more attractive option for households. BPCL is also looking to export the burners beyond India.
