Manitoba's stationary combustion source GHG emissions


In 2009, stationary combustion sources account for about 21% of Manitoba's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (1). Most of these emissions are from heating our buildings.

Stationary sources include energy used in

  • residential and commercial heating
  • manufacturing and construction industries
  • electricity generation
  • mining/oil and gas extraction


The chart below shows how these emissions have changed from 1990 to 2009:

  • 9% decrease overall from Stationary Combustion including a 33% decrease in residential heating - mostly due to success of programs to reduced demand (e.g. insulation, furnace replacement)
  • 33% increase in Manufacturing industries
  • 3% increase in Commercial & institutional heating
