http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/substance#values
at least "heat" and "electricity" are no substances at all, "gas" isn't a
substance either but a state of aggregation, lng and H2S are abbreviations
or chemical codes (rather than British English words), IMHO you don't have
to take these usage numbers too seriously, as this key has a total usage of
only 430 and there don't seem reasonable semantics to be in use.


Cheers,
Martin
