The Federal Trade Commission has approved Energy Transfer Partners’ application to sell their Heritage Propane Express business to JP Energy Partners. The sale was a condition of FTC approval for AmeriGas’s acquisition of Energy Transfer Partners’ propane assets. The FTC required the divestiture because it was concerned the transaction would otherwise raise prices of propane exchange cylinders. AmeriGas is the country’s largest propane distributor.
