According to a 2018 report, British Columbia, which has had a carbon price since 2008, had the fastest-growing economy in Canada. [52] In its April 25, 2019 report, Canada's Parliamentary Budget Officer estimated that the federal government "will generate CA$2.63 billion in carbon pricing revenues in 2019-20."
The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various non-financial costs (environmental ...
The Canadian Centre for Energy Information (CCEI) is a Canadian federal government website and portal that was announced on May 23, 2019. [ 1 ] The Canadian Energy Information Portal was launched by Statistics Canada , in partnership with Natural Resources Canada , Environment and Climate Change Canada , and the Canada Energy Regulator .
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.

RETScreen is widely used to facilitate and implement clean energy projects. For example, RETScreen has been used: to retrofit the Empire State Building with energy efficiency measures [24] at the manufacturing facilities of 3M Canada [25] extensively by the Irish wind industry to analyze potential new projects [26]
With the introduction of a Feed-in tariff (FIT) in 2009, Ontario became a global leader for solar energy projects. The program was the first of its kind in North America. [citation needed] Thanks to the FIT program, Ontario was the home of what was temporarily the largest solar farm in the world (in October 2010) until surpassed by larger farms in China and India.
