Electricity Generation and Consumption In Canada
Listed in Borealis and Agri-environmental Research Data Dataverse — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5683/sp2/6dgozj
The domain of interest is Energy; however, the focus is to observe the trends between the different sources used for electricity generation among Canada and its provinces from 2005 to 2016, and to compare the trends for electricity generation to electricity consumption in Canada from 2005 to 2015.
Description
The main problem that will be investigated is how much of a particular source is used for electricity generation in Canada over these eleven years and what is the least and most used source of electricity generation over Canada.
It will also be observed whether the proportion of electricity generated by each source in Canada during 2016, is consistent with the proportion of electricity generated by each source in every province. Additionally electricity consumption for the provinces will be studied to determine which province consumes the most and least amounts of electricity in Canada. The significance of this problem is to understand which sources are highly used to generate electric power in the provinces and in Canada.

If a source is being used the most in Canada and in the provinces, it will lead us to find possible ways to generate electricity from the least used sources, so the country and its provinces do not depend on one source for electric power. It will also be observed if the electricity generation by each province has increased, decreased or remain constant from 2005-2016. From this data we can also infer which province generates the most and least amount of electric power and determine which abundant resources are available to each province for its electricity generation.
Moreover, by comparing the trends for electricity consumption and electricity generation it will be observed if any province consumes more electricity than it generates. If so we can find ways to provide that province with more electrcity by importing it from other provinces.
