A new propane business is setting up shop in West El Paso.

Zenergy Propane launched in July 2024 and is headquartered in El Paso, according to the El Paso Central Appraisal District website.

Zenergy Propane CEO Ricardo Zaragoza did not respond to multiple requests for comment on the company and the new location, so details remain scarce. Typically, propane is distributed in small tanks for personal use, such as propane grills, and is considered one of the most environmentally friendly fuels available.

Where is it?

The new Zenergy Propane site will be located at 6190 Doniphan Drive in West El Paso, according to the city’s permit and licensing page.

The new location is situated near Artcraft Road, just next door to Monarch Motorsports, behind Rio Valley Estates.

What was there before?

The new Zenergy Propane location will be a new construction site consisting of a 100-square-foot prefabricated building.

Who is the contractor?

While the city’s site does not list a contractor, Zaragoza is listed as the applicant for the project and Hard Work Real Estate is listed as the owner.

Unlike most business listings on the city’s website, there is no cost listed for the Zenergy Propane site.
