Energy Pricing Information for Canadian Consumers

Since late 2002, the world has experienced very strong energy markets. In this context, consumers and industries have faced sharply higher prices for energy. The National Energy Board (NEB) expects that these market conditions will last, more or less, for the next few years. With the challenges and opportunities that this higher price environment presents, there is an increasing need to provide Canadians with reliable, timely and easily accessible information on Canadian energy.

This section provides Canadian consumers with information on the main energy commodities (i.e. oil, natural gas, propane, butane and electricity), primarily with respect to pricing and factors affecting pricing. For background, information is also provided on how Canadian energy markets work, including a summary of each industry in Canada, frequently asked questions (FAQs) and helpful Web site links, including those that provide pricing data.
