BC Hydro's primary energy consumption is derived from facility operations reports within our own operating jurisdiction as well as from billing information provided by FortisBC for facilities that are located outside of BC Hydro's operating jurisdiction. As an electricity provider, BC Hydro does not pay for energy consumption within our own operations jurisdiction. Please note that the numbers reported are Calendar Year.
