In 1991, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) launched the National Energy Use Database (NEUD) initiative to help the department improve its knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency at the end-use level in Canada and to support NRCan's analytical expertise. The NEUD plays a number of crucial roles directly related to NRCan's ecoENERGY Efficiency initiatives; however, its most important role is to secure the development of a reliable, Canada-wide information base on energy consumption for all energy-consuming sectors.
The new 2006 data are now available in our Comprehensive Energy Use Database, Energy Use Data Handbook Tables and Energy Efficiency Trends Analysis Tables.
