The second-largest single source of power (15% of the total) is nuclear power, with several plants in Ontario generating more than half of that province's electricity, and one generator in New Brunswick. This makes Canada the world's sixth-largest producer of electricity generated by nuclear power, producing 95 TWh in 2017.
Given Canada’s expected need to increase energy production by as much as 150 GWh from 2005 to 2030, [49] it is fitting that the ocean be explored as a potential source to sate an ever growing energy consumption. In Canada exists the highest potential for tidal energy production in the world in the Bay of Fundy.
Canada has access to all main sources of energy including oil and gas, coal, hydropower, biomass, solar, geothermal, wind, marine and nuclear.It is the world's second largest producer of uranium, [2] third largest producer of hydro-electricity, [3] fourth largest natural gas producer, and the fifth largest producer of crude oil.

World electric generation by country and source in 2022 [1] This is a list of countries and dependencies by annual electricity production. China is the world's largest electricity producing country, followed by the United States and India. Data are for the year 2022 and are sourced from Ember. [1]
This article lists the largest electrical generating stations in Canada in terms of current installed electrical capacity. Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal , fuel oils , nuclear , natural gas , oil shale and peat , while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass , geothermal heat , hydro , solar energy ...
This is a list of electrical generating stations in Alberta, Canada.. In 2023 Alberta produced 74% of its electricity through natural gas. [1] Alberta has a deregulated electricity market [2] which allows a large number of private companies to participate in electricity production, particularly in the cases of cogeneration and renewable energy.
This is a list of electric generation, consumption, exports and imports by country. Data are for the year 2021 and are from the EIA. [1] Figures are in terawatt-hours (TWh).
