Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Canada
- Euro area
How they compare
Euro area currently reports 1.56 Mt CO2e against 0.1643 Mt CO2e in Canada, a difference of 1.4 Mt CO2e.
That makes Euro area's figure about 9.5 times Canada's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, Euro area has been ahead every year.
Canada ranks 19th and Euro area ranks 2nd of 194 countries.
Euro area has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade

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).
