Energy Fact Book, Fall 2026 Edition

Canada is an energy nation. From hydroelectricity to the oil sands to emerging renewables, our vast and varied natural resources have helped build a resilient economy, connect our communities, and support energy security at home and abroad.

Today's energy landscape is evolving. Canada is innovating in how energy is produced, delivered, and used. Renewable electricity—led by wind and solar—is growing. Oil and gas remain foundational, supported by efficiency gains and operational advancements. Clean fuels and technologies like carbon capture, energy storage, and electrification are reshaping industry and transportation.

These changes are part of a global energy transformation—driven by technology, shifting demand, affordability needs and the importance of competitiveness. With its geography, skilled workforce, and commitment to research, Canada is positioned to lead in this transformation—leveraging regional strengths, priorities, energy mixes, and economic pathways.

The Energy Fact Book provides key information on energy markets in Canada in a format that is easy to consult, providing solid foundation for Canadians to understand and discuss important developments across the energy sector.

The Fall 2026 edition continues to reflect the latest available data at the time of its preparation and incorporates newly available information across a range of key indicators, including Canada’s international standing in energy production and trade, government revenues from the energy sector, energy workforce demographics, oil and gas reserves, energy research, development and demonstration (RD&D), renewable energy capacity, and trade in liquefied natural gas (LNG).
