Working Paper # 12 - Measuring Sustainable Development: Energy Production & Use in Canada (March 1991)The NRTEE held a workshop in Montréal on February 28 to March 1, 1990, to discuss indicators of sustainable development for energy production and use in Canada. Forty-eight individuals representing energy suppliers, energy users and energy policy makers in government and academia participated in the two-day workshop. The goals of the workshop were to provide advice on a draft series of indicators for sustainable development in energy production and use at the national level (macro indicators); to identify practical links between macro (national and inter-jurisdicational level) and micro (individual or corporate level) indicators; to identify next steps for progress; and to share information and experiences of participants.
