2008 Energy Survey Report

Attached is the survey report from the fall 2008 local government energy survey, initiated by the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources and its partners. The project was funded by Ministry of Environment, and the Community Energy Association (CEA) was engaged to conduct the survey and produce the report. Appendices include an excel file aggregating survey responses to each question, and the survey itself. Individual survey responses remain private.

This survey was a follow-up to the 2006 CEA/UBCM/Province local government energy planning survey, with a particular focus on district energy and small-scale power generation. This survey report will provide valuable guidance to the Province and various agencies for shaping future energy support for local governments.

CEA sincerely thanks local governments for having taken the time to complete the survey. The winner of our respondent-draw was Village of Lions Bay; Lions Bay will receive their choice from 3 book prizes on energy sustainability. Congratulations!
