Japan vs Russian Federation: Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Japan
- Russian Federation
How they compare
Russian Federation currently reports 0.6907 Mt CO2e against 0.6478 Mt CO2e in Japan, a difference of 0.0429 Mt CO2e.
That makes Russian Federation's figure about 1.1 times Japan's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.
Japan ranks 5th and Russian Federation ranks 4th of 194 countries.
Russian Federation 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).
