[38100098] Direct plus indirect energy and greenhouse gas emissions intensity, by industry

Data source: Statistics Canada, Environment Accounts and Statistics Division.

Intensity of production is measured as direct plus indirect energy use or greenhouse gas emissions per thousand dollars of production. Direct energy use and emissions are those associated with the industry's own production; indirect energy use and emissions are those associated with the production of the goods and services that are used by the industry. Energy intensities are based on the physical flow account for energy use (table 38-10-0096-01). Greenhouse gas emissions intensities are based on the physical flow account for greenhouse gas emissions (table 38-10-0097-01). The supply and use tables are built around three classification systems, namely the Input-Output Industry Classification (IOIC) for industries, the Supply and Use Product Classification (SUPC) for products (goods and services), and the Input-Output Final Demand Classification (IOFDC) for final demand categories. The Input-Output Industry Classification (IOIC) is based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and the Supply and Use Product Classification (SUPC) is based on the North American Products Classification System (NAPCS). The Input-Output Final Demand Classification is based on the Classification of Individual Consumption by Purpose (COICOP) for the personal expenditure categories and the North American Industry Classification (NAICS) for the gross fixed capital formation categories. This table is published at the link 1961 level of the supply and use tables. The alphanumeric codes appearing in square brackets besides each industry title represent the Input-Output Industry Classification (IOIC) codes. The IOIC identifies both institutional sectors and industries based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The first two characters of the IOIC alphanumeric codes represent the sector. IOIC codes beginning with a BS represent business sector industries, codes beginning with an NP represent Non-Profit Institutions Serving Household (NPISH) sector industries, and codes beginning with a GS represent government sector industries. As of the December 2014 release of the physical flow accounts, industries BS32520 and BS325A0 have been merged into a single industry BS325C0 (Miscellaneous chemical product manufacturing). This table replaces tables 38-10-0108-01 and 38-10-0110-01. The data on intensities by industry provide a measure of the interdependence between an industry, the rest of the economy, and the use of energy or production of greenhouse gas emissions. They should only be considered on a single year basis (rather than as time series) since they are based on gross output in current dollars.

Data for 2009 to 2020 were revised in February 2025. As of reference year 2014, the classifications of the supply and use tables have been modified to include cannabis related industries.
