North American Cooperation on Energy Information, Mapping Data

Mapping Resources on energy infrastructure and potential implemented as part of the North American Cooperation on Energy Information (NACEI) between the Department of Energy of the United States of America, the Department of Natural Resources of Canada, and the Ministry of Energy of the United Mexican States.  
  
  [Natural Gas Processing Plants](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/636b9550-3700-4e66-8259-5cfc8159a784): Facilities designed to recover natural gas liquids from a stream of natural gas. These facilities control the quality of the natural gas to be marketed.  
  
  [Refineries](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/57e7bc4c-680b-4640-9fa1-ded7ce186fab): Facilities that separate and convert crude oil or other feedstock into liquid petroleum products, including upgraders and asphalt refineries.  
  
  [Liquefied Natural Gas Terminals](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/e08eec16-7c7a-4253-9bee-ea640d400a54): Natural gas onshore facilities used to receive, unload, load, store, gasify, liquefy, process and transport by ship, natural gas that is imported from a foreign country, exported to a foreign country, or for interior commerce.  
  
  [Power Plants, 100 MW or more](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/40fbe40c-01cd-49d3-8add-0d20ed64c90d): Stations containing prime movers, electric generators, and auxiliary equipment for converting mechanical, chemical, and/or fission energy into electric energy with an installed capacity of 100 megawatts or more.  
  
  [Renewable Power Plants, 1 MW or more](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/490db619-ab58-4a2a-a245-2376ce1840de): Stations containing prime movers, electric generators, and auxiliary equipment for converting mechanical, chemical into electric energy with an installed capacity of 1 Megawatt or more generated from renewable energy, including biomass, hydroelectric, pumped-storage hydroelectric, geothermal, solar, and wind.   
  
  [Natural Gas Underground Storage](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/07b63e0e-09bb-4c4f-b057-63a58d40553a): Sub-surface facilities used for storing natural gas. The facilities are usually hollowed-out salt domes, geological reservoirs (depleted oil or gas field) or water bearing sands (called aquifers) topped by an impermeable cap rock.

  [Electric transmission lines](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/35c51098-5cd8-44b0-b1cd-c8ce2f5dae89),   
  
  [liquids pipelines](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/82053097-6b4f-44d9-a750-549df44b36b4) and   
  
  [gas pipelines](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/e313db89-4219-4a5e-a543-772a86068710).  
  
  [Solar Resource, NSRDB PSM Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI)](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/9554ed18-6ab2-477f-9545-da091eba762f): Average of the hourly Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) over 17 years (1998-2014). Data extracted from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) developed using the Physical Solar Model (PSM) by National Renewable Energy Laboratory ("NREL"), Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC, U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE").  
  
  [Solar Resource, NSRDB PSM Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI)](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/a2dd0554-03f8-4edc-a3b3-67b47c5c9d6d): Average of the hourly Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) over 17 years (1998-2014). Data extracted from the National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) developed using the Physical Solar Model (PSM) by National Renewable Energy Laboratory ("NREL"), Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC, U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE").
