- Kyrgyzstan
- Switzerland
How they compare
Kyrgyzstan currently reports 2.74 Mt CO2e against 2.59 Mt CO2e in Switzerland, a difference of 0.15 Mt CO2e.
That makes Kyrgyzstan's figure about 1.1 times Switzerland's.
The two have swapped places 8 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Kyrgyzstan ahead.
Kyrgyzstan ranks 103rd and Switzerland ranks 106th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Kyrgyzstan averaged higher in 2 and Switzerland in 4.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Kyrgyzstan | Switzerland | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 2.2 Mt CO2e | 1.3 Mt CO2e | 0.8956 Mt CO2e | Kyrgyzstan |
| 1980s | 3.11 Mt CO2e | 0.6615 Mt CO2e | 2.44 Mt CO2e | Kyrgyzstan |
| 1990s | 2.39 Mt CO2e | 2.43 Mt CO2e | 0.0338 Mt CO2e | Switzerland |
| 2000s | 1.91 Mt CO2e | 2.84 Mt CO2e | 0.9291 Mt CO2e | Switzerland |
| 2010s | 1.89 Mt CO2e | 2.71 Mt CO2e | 0.8215 Mt CO2e | Switzerland |
| 2020s | 2.6 Mt CO2e | 2.63 Mt CO2e | 0.0312 Mt CO2e | Switzerland |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
