Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Brazil
- Indonesia
How they compare
Indonesia currently reports 0.4578 Mt CO2e against 0.3941 Mt CO2e in Brazil, a difference of 0.0637 Mt CO2e.
That makes Indonesia's figure about 1.2 times Brazil's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Brazil ahead.
Brazil ranks 8th and Indonesia ranks 7th of 195 countries.
Brazil has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

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).
