The Chief Executive of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Dr. Mustapha Abdul-Hamid, says the cylinder recirculation model (CRM) is allowing entrepreneurs with limited capital to invest in the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) distribution chain.

According to him, unlike the traditional LPG distribution system which requires huge capital in the establishment of LPG filling stations and related distribution costs, little investment is needed for the setting up of LPG depots and exchange points under the CRM.

Speaking at this year's NPA's Consumer Week Celebrations in the Eastern Regional capital, Koforidua on July 4, 2024, the NPA Boss said the CRM would also create more jobs for the youth at the LPG depots, exchange points and transportation of cylinders.

The occasion, preceded by the region's CRM and safe LPG educational campaign, was held on the theme: "CRM: Making LPG accessible to all in a safe and efficient manner."

It was attended by market women, drivers, professionals and students. Board members and directors of NPA, security capos and heads of state institutions also graced the occasion under the chairmanship of the Omanhene of the New Juaben Traditional Area, Daasebre Kwaku Boateng III.
