This report was previously published by BP.
Figures refer to gross generation and do not account for cross-border electricity supply. According to the source, the data was converted on the basis of thermal equivalence: the amount of fuel required by thermal power stations to produce the indicated electricity output.
This statistic was compiled using several releases of the publication.
Figures were restated based on the latest edition of the report.
Canadian hydropower consumption amounted to ****exajoules in 2024, a slight increase of some nearly *** petajoules from the previous year. Nonetheless, from 1998 to 2024, consumption of hydropower in the North American country increased by roughly 10 petajoules, peaking at exajoules in 2017.
