ACAN: Industrial Consumption of Energy Data for Canadian Industry

The department of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) has a requirement to review and

analyze confidential industrial energy-use and production data collected by Statistics

Canada.

In addition, NRCan requires that this detailed information be maintained in a database

so that NRCan can assess and report on the long-term impacts of energy efficiency and

energy consumption trends in Canada’s industrial sectors.

This work is necessary to ensure the accuracy, reliability, and long-term continuity of

energy and production data used by NRCan to monitor energy efficiency trends, assess

greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and evaluate energy consumption in Canada’s

industrial sectors.

The requirement includes acquiring, reviewing and analyzing preliminary and finalized

energy and production data, preparing confidential datasets and reports. In addition,

the work involves maintaining a secure industrial energy-use and production database,

contributing technical expertise at CIPEC Data Day, and providing factorization analysis

(activity, structure, weather, service level, and capacity utilization effects) to assess

changes in energy use within industrial sub-sectors.
