The Canadian Industrial Energy End-Use Data and Analysis Centre is part of the Energy and Materials Research Group in the School of Resource and Environmental Management, which is an academic programme in the Faculty of Environment at Simon Fraser University. We are dedicated to improving the quality and accessibility of practical and unbiased information related to energy use in Canadian Industry.

Our Purpose

Accurate and timely information on energy is needed by industries aiming to remain competitive and meet environmental obligations, by governments trying to set appropriate policy, and by utilities or energy service companies attempting to influence energy consumption. CIEEDAC helps these organisations by:

facilitating access to data on energy consumption in Canadian industry,
monitoring the quality of data to ensure that it 1) represents the complexities of industrial energy use and 2) meets the diverse needs of the interested parties, and
investigating and implementing methods to improve data collection and data analysis.

Our Resources

CIEEDAC's staff bring together a wide range of expertise in industrial energy modelling, engineering and policy analysis. We work in close cooperation with industrial associations, federal and provincial governments, Statistics Canada, and similar agencies in other countries.

Our Services

maintaining a comprehensive database from 1990 to the present. The data include annual energy consumption, CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions, cumulative GHG emissions and production data. Data are disaggregated by type of energy and by industry nationally. Some historical (1990 – 1996) data on expenditures on energy and physical energy consumption are available at the provincial level as well.
publishing annual reports on the information in the database such as trends in energy consumption, GHG emissions, and intensity indicators.
maintaining and updating databases of renewable electricity generation and cogeneration in Canada
providing specific data analysis for sponsors, and improving data accessibility and quality through focused projects.
providing an interactive database for accessing our data on-line (under construction)
completing an annual literature review covering consumer and firm behaviour when purchasing energy-using equipment
publishing three newsletters a year

Our Sponsors

CIEEDAC is a non-profit organisation funded through sponsorship. It was established in 1993 through an initiative by Natural Resources Canada to develop a system of National Energy Use Database centres. Similar centres exist for buildings (residential and commercial) and transportation sectors. CIEEDAC is located in the School of Resource and Environmental Management at Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, British Columbia.
