Over the past five years, there has been a notable rise in the use of gas for domestic purposes in Zimbabwe. This increase in Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) usage can be attributed to the prevalence of load shedding, which has become a regular occurrence in the daily lives of Zimbabweans. As a result of unpredictable power outages, many households, particularly in urban areas, have turned to LPG as a reliable alternative for cooking and heating.
