Considerable investments have been made in clean energy and energy efficiency in recent years. As a result, energy efficiency activities are rapidly growing across all industries, and so is energy efficiency employment.

- Construction
- Manufacturing
- Wholesale Trade
- Professional and Business Services
- Utilities
- Other Services
In this report, you will learn about
- Establishments, revenues, export readiness and employment in Canada’s energy efficiency sector in 2023.
- Workforce distribution includes work intensity, industry, sub-technology application, occupation and demographics.
- Estimated job growth in 2024 in the energy efficiency sector, and hiring challenges reported in 2023.
