About the guide

Improving energy efficiency benefits all Canadians, and those experiencing energy poverty and other vulnerabilities benefit the most from efficiency improvements.

This user guide introduces an interactive map designed to visualize energy poverty and vulnerability across different parts of Canada. The map highlights key indicators such as energy poverty and relevant sociodemographic indicators.

Using the guide, you can navigate through various layers and data points to understand the nature and context of energy poverty faced by communities, enabling policymakers, researchers, and the public to identify critical areas for intervention and support.
