Summaries of emissions reports for linear facilities operations in British Columbia, aggregated for oil and gas companies and electricity transmission. The data is published by the Director under authority of the Reporting Regulation for facilities with emissions exceeding 10,000 tonnes CO2e. It covers the years 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013.
Use Cases
- Analyze aggregate emissions trends for regulated linear facilities based on the reported summaries.
- Compare emissions from oil and gas operations versus electricity transmission sectors based on the dataset's scope.
- Assess compliance and reporting patterns for facilities exceeding the 10,000-tonne threshold.
- Model historical industrial emissions in British Columbia based on the 2010-2013 time range.
Strengths
- Data covers four consecutive years (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013) for temporal analysis.
- Focuses on significant emitters, reporting only for facilities with emissions >10,000 tonnes CO2e.
- Published under a formal regulatory authority (Reporting Regulation, s.29), suggesting official provenance.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Data may reflect temporal bias inherent to the 2010-2013 coverage period.
