CIPEC Annual Report

Each year, CIPEC publishes a report that outlines the energy efficiency accomplishments of Canadian Industry. CIPEC annual reports profile more than 20 industrial sectors, noting their energy intensity improvements, targets and challenges.

Industrial companies are also featured in CIPEC annual reports. These “success story” companies demonstrate what is possible when it comes to improving energy efficiency in Canada's industrial sector by:

• identifying unique or creative processes through investments in new technology
  
• improving operating practices
  
• implementing effective employee awareness campaigns
  
• raising the profile of energy conservation within corporate boardrooms
  

In the face of escalating energy costs, these successful companies prove that what is good for the environment is also good for their bottom line.

CIPEC Annual Reports

In 2006, the convention for naming CIPEC Annual Reports changed to reflect the year in which a report is published.

2009 CIPEC Annual Report

CIPEC brings exceptional value to Canadian industry while supporting Canada's drive to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The more than 5,000 companies that CIPEC represents reduced their combined energy intensity by 11.7 percent between 1990 and 2007, an average of 0.7 percent per year. Improved energy efficiency enabled Canadian industry to avoid approximately $2.1 billion in purchased energy in 2007 – enough energy to heat almost 2.7 million Canadian households for one year. Had energy intensity remained constant, GHG emissions would have been 36.2 megatonnes higher.

The 2009 CIPEC Annual Report gives a sector-by-sector overview of industrial energy efficiency performance in Canada. The report complements the energy efficiency data with industry success stories, an overview of Natural Resources Canada programs and incentives and contact information for members of CIPEC's Task Force Council and Executive Board.
