The data is extracted from Hydro-Québec’s internal systems and compiled based on five industry sectors:
- Agricultural
- Commercial
- Industrial
- Institutional
- Residential
Data from municipal systems (Alma, Amos, Baie-Comeau, Coaticook, Joliette, Magog, Saguenay, Sherbrooke and Westmount) and from the systems of the Coopérative régionale d’électricité de Saint-Jean-Baptiste-de-Rouville are compiled in the “Institutional” industry sector.
Given the sensitivity of electricity consumption data regarding privacy concerns and commercial interests, such data may not be available for some of the smaller municipalities.
