Mendoza subsidized gas cylinder program
Overview
The Mendoza government is operating the ‘La Garrafa en tu Barrio’ program to provide subsidized 10 kg gas cylinders to vulnerable populations lacking natural gas network access. The initiative aims to reduce costs for families by offering refills at approximately half the market price.
Since 2019, the program has grown from 24,000 social cylinders to over 500,000 deliveries in 2025. The operation utilizes more than 600 distribution points across 18 departments and reaches over 8,000 families daily through a digital delivery system and ID-based controls. To access the benefit, residents must present their gas cylinder, a photocopy of their DNI, and a negative certification from ANSES. Retirees, pensioners, and individuals with disabilities are required to provide additional specific documentation.
