Description: The Remote Communities Energy Database is a tool that aims to collect and show pertinent factual information about the generation and use of electricity and other energy sources for all remote communities of Canada.
This data is collected from a number of sources, including from Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC), Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) and various stakeholders involved in these communities. Information shown is public information that is available from Statistics Canada, from remote communities themselves, from publicly available reports or from public web sites. Its availability in one site where data can be collected and searched is what makes it a powerful tool.
The term “remote community” are communities that fulfill the following criteria:
Any community not currently connected to the North-American electrical grid nor to the piped natural gas network; and
Is a permanent or long-term (5 years or more) settlement with at least 10 dwellings.
