Reports now have it that using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), commonly known as cooking gas, is a more cost-effective option compared to petrol for generator usage in Nigeria.
During investigations regarding the costs and requirements of converting a generator to run on LPG, I found out that the conversion simply entails replacing the carburetor. That's a petrol generator’s fuel carburetor must be swapped with a hybrid carburetor that enables the generator to function on both petrol and gas, depending on the user’s preference.
Therefore, individuals planning to convert their generator to run on gas will need a gas cylinder, its accompanying components (hose, regulator), and a hybrid carburetor that facilitates operation with either petrol or gas.
Good luck.
