Thailand vs Vietnam: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Thailand
- Vietnam
How they compare
Vietnam currently reports 0.4864 Mt CO2e against 0.349 Mt CO2e in Thailand, a difference of 0.1374 Mt CO2e.
That makes Vietnam's figure about 1.4 times Thailand's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Vietnam ahead.
Thailand ranks 8th and Vietnam ranks 7th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Thailand averaged higher in 3 and Vietnam in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Thailand | Vietnam | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.0573 Mt CO2e | 0.0727 Mt CO2e | 0.0155 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
| 1980s | 0.0897 Mt CO2e | 0.1058 Mt CO2e | 0.0161 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
| 1990s | 0.1641 Mt CO2e | 0.1286 Mt CO2e | 0.0354 Mt CO2e | Thailand |
| 2000s | 0.2585 Mt CO2e | 0.1645 Mt CO2e | 0.094 Mt CO2e | Thailand |
| 2010s | 0.3888 Mt CO2e | 0.2377 Mt CO2e | 0.1511 Mt CO2e | Thailand |
| 2020s | 0.3512 Mt CO2e | 0.4354 Mt CO2e | 0.0843 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
