Energy Data and Utility Bill Audit in Moncton
MartinAI turns the utility bills behind every building in Moncton, New Brunswick into clean, audited, report-ready data, across electricity, gas, water, steam, and more.
Every building in Moncton generates a steady stream of utility bills across electricity, natural gas, water, and sometimes steam or district energy. Read one at a time, they are just paper. Assembled, validated, and understood, they are the clearest record of how a building actually performs. Diversified around forestry and pulp and paper, energy including the Irving Oil refinery at Saint John, agriculture, food processing and manufacturing. As a city in Canada, Moncton has its own utilities, regulator, and reporting rules, and this page covers what that means for your data.
The energy picture in Moncton
| Grid carbon intensity | about 330 g CO2e/kWh (2022) |
|---|---|
| Grid mix | Nuclear from Point Lepreau about 40 percent, fossil fuels (natural gas, coal and petroleum) about 27 percent, hydro about 23 percent, wind about 6 percent and biomass about 5 percent in 2021. Grid intensity was 330 g CO2e per kWh in 2022, moderate for Canada, with coal generation targeted for phase-out by 2030. |
| Main electricity utilities | NB Power, Saint John Energy, Edmundston Energy, and Perth-Andover Electric Light Commission |
| Main gas utilities | Liberty Utilities (Enbridge Gas New Brunswick) |
| Energy regulator | New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board |
Moncton draws from the New Brunswick grid, so its electricity carbon intensity reflects that grid. At about 330 grams of CO2e per kilowatt-hour (2022), electricity here carries a middling carbon intensity. Both electricity and fuel reductions move the number, which makes accurate, commodity-by-commodity data the difference between a defensible emissions figure and a guess.

What MartinAI delivers in Moncton
Whether a building is served by NB Power, Saint John Energy, and Edmundston Energy, or any other provider, MartinAI reads its utility bills across every commodity and layout, separates true consumption from delivery, demand, and tax lines, and validates each figure before it reaches a report. The result is one clean record per building that you can analyze, benchmark, and hand to an auditor.
Data delivery
Every utility bill read across electricity, gas, water, steam, and fuels, normalized to consistent units and periods.
Bill audit
Rate class, demand, tax, and meter mapping checked against the tariff and the meter to recover overcharges.
Benchmarking
Clean records that feed ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager and internal intensity comparisons across sites.
Emissions reporting
Consumption paired with the right local emission factor for defensible Scope 1 and Scope 2 numbers.
Utility bill audit in Moncton
An audit is where clean data pays for itself. With every bill in Moncton read and validated, the anomalies surface: a wrong rate class, a demand charge inflated by one bad interval, tax applied where it should not be, consumption billed to the wrong meter. Industry figures put utility billing errors at 2.5 to 10 percent of spend, so the recovery is often material.
Reporting and compliance in New Brunswick
No provincial mandatory building energy benchmarking or disclosure requirement is in force. Reporting is voluntary through NRCan's ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, while federal direction comes from the Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS) issued by the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board and OSFI's Guideline B-15 for federally regulated financial institutions.

Frequently asked questions
Can MartinAI handle utility bills from Moncton and New Brunswick?
Yes. MartinAI reads utility bills across every commodity (electricity, natural gas, water, steam, and fuels) and every layout used by utilities in New Brunswick, then validates each figure. Local formats and multi-meter accounts are exactly what it is built for.
What is the grid carbon intensity in Moncton?
Grid electricity in Moncton, which sits on the New Brunswick grid, is about 330 grams of CO2e per kilowatt-hour (2022). MartinAI pairs your validated consumption with the right local emission factor so your Scope 2 numbers are accurate.
Do you help with energy reporting rules in New Brunswick?
No provincial mandatory building energy benchmarking or disclosure requirement is in force. Reporting is voluntary through NRCan's ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, while federal direction comes from the Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS) issued by the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board and OSFI's Guideline B-15 for federally regulated financial institutions. MartinAI produces the clean, traceable data those reports depend on.
How is this different from reading bills by hand?
Manual entry is slow and error prone, and the errors flow straight into your cost and emissions numbers. MartinAI reads and validates automatically, flags anomalies, and keeps every figure traceable back to the source bill, so the data holds up under an audit.
