Belgium vs Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC): Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Belgium
- Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC)
How they compare
Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) currently reports 0.1363 Mt CO2e against 0.0561 Mt CO2e in Belgium, a difference of 0.0802 Mt CO2e.
That makes Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC)'s figure about 2.4 times Belgium's.
The two have swapped places 11 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Belgium ahead.
Belgium ranks 40th and Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) ranks 38th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Belgium averaged higher in 4 and Heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC) in 2.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), 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).
