How they compare

Egypt currently reports 28.99 Mt CO2e against 26.55 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 2.44 Mt CO2e.

That makes Egypt's figure about 1.1 times Germany's.

The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.

Egypt ranks 18th and Germany ranks 21st of 190 countries.

Across the 6 decades both report, Egypt averaged higher in 1 and Germany in 5.

Head to head by decade

Decade Egypt Germany Difference Ahead
1970s 3.11 Mt CO2e 69.58 Mt CO2e 66.47 Mt CO2e Germany
1980s 3.35 Mt CO2e 61.87 Mt CO2e 58.52 Mt CO2e Germany
1990s 7.8 Mt CO2e 46.64 Mt CO2e 38.84 Mt CO2e Germany
2000s 13.81 Mt CO2e 35.81 Mt CO2e 22 Mt CO2e Germany
2010s 18.8 Mt CO2e 33.8 Mt CO2e 14.99 Mt CO2e Germany
2020s 29.98 Mt CO2e 27.83 Mt CO2e 2.15 Mt CO2e Egypt

Averages of every year both report within each decade.

A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
