      ABSTRACT

      This chapter aims to compare the energy intensity of industries and regions in the US and Canada, to determine if there are significant differences in the spatial pattern of energy consumption. It presents data on energy consumption in industry over time, simply as an initial excursion into identifying differences in regional energy flows. Data are then aggregated by metropolitan area to promote a comparison of regional energy intensities. The chapter begins with a brief discussion of the theory of energy flows and regional competition. It also presents a comparison of industrial energy consumption in the US and Canada. Industrial energy consumption remains the most important item in a region’s energy budget. Just as differences in energy intensities are noticeable across industries, regions exhibit their own energy intensities. Most of the work on energy in a spatial context relates to demand side issues.
