    Abstract:
    Gas Reusense is a model of energetic industry, formed by the majority of the local capital, which serves as a reference for the analysis of the other industries created in the 19th century, in Spanish cities of similar dimensions. The principal objective of the company from Reus was the production and provision of the gas, first destined for the street lighting and soon after to the private consumption.As it happened in other places of Catalonia and Spain, this company also brought electricity to the city of Reus, in 1898, as well as the butane gas, in 1960. The case of Gas Reusense shows the technological evolution in the gas sector, the development of the energetic supply and demand and also the process of modernization which meant for the society gas and electricity. Thanks to gas, the population of the cities made a transition towards the modern age of the energy.
