Canadian homes, offices and factories are large users of electricity, or hydro, as it is often called in many regions of Canada. [9] In 2007, Canadian per capita electricity consumption was among the highest in the world, with a yearly average of 17MWh. [10] In 2017, the average annual electricity consumption per capita in Canada dropped to 14. ...
In 2011, fossil fuels accounted for the majority of energy consumption in Canada. [42] Petroleum and natural gas accounted for 56.2% of the country's total energy consumption. [42] The depletion of non renewable energy and its increasing costs have been fueling Canada's shift towards finding sustainable and environmentally-friendly alternatives ...
The name—Canadian Centre for Energy Information (CCEI)—was previously used by a now-defunct Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP)'s in-house information centre, that was established in 2002. The Calgary-based Petroleum Communication Foundation (PCF), which was in existence from 1975 until December 31, 2002, fulfilled a similar ...
Social Progress Index vs Energy Use per capita, 2015. List of countries by Social Progress Index. World energy consumption per capita based on 2021 data. This is a list of countries by total energy consumption per capita. This is not the consumption of end-users but all energy needed as input to produce fuel and electricity for end-users.
By 2025, Asia is projected to account for half of the world’s electricity consumption, with one-third of global electricity to be consumed in China. [1] This list of countries by electric energy consumption is mostly based on the Energy Information Administration. [2]
In 2016 natural gas was used to provide 35% of all energy in Canada, double the amount supplied by electricity. [18] Electricity generated by natural gas was 8.5% of the nation's total. Natural gas is used to supply 50% of space heating, and 65% of water heating in homes, similarly 80% of businesses use natural gas for space and water heating. [19]
This is a list of countries by total primary energy consumption and production. 1 quadrillion BTU = 293 TW·h = 1.055 EJ 1 quadrillion BTU/yr = 1.055 EJ/yr = 293 TW·h/yr = 33.433 GW. The numbers below are for the total energy consumption or production in a whole year, so should be multiplied by 33.433 to get the average value in GW in that year.
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.
