The Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) collects information on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions annually from facilities across Canada. It is a mandatory program for those who meet the requirements.
Facilities that emit 10 kilotonnes or more of GHGs, in carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent (eq.) units, per year must report their emissions to Environment and Climate Change Canada.
The emissions data is available in two files, each presenting emissions by different breakdowns and offered in two convenient formats for downloads: .xlsx and .csv.
The Emissions by Gas file, covering data from 2004 to present, contains emissions (in tonnes and tonnes of CO2 eq.) for each facility categorized by gas type, including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), perfluorocarbons (PFC), and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6).
The Emissions by Source file, starting from 2022, includes emissions data (in tonnes and tonnes of CO2 eq.) broken down by source category, encompassing Stationary Fuel Combustion, Industrial Process, On-site Transportation, Waste, Wastewater, Venting, Flaring, and Leakage.
For additional information and usage guidelines, please refer to the accompanying "Lisez Moi - Read Me" file. Additionally, our data search tool can assist you in efficiently navigating and extracting specific information from the GHGRP's data.
