Germany vs IDA total: Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Transport (Energy) over time
- Germany
- IDA total
How they compare
IDA total currently reports 2.32 Mt CO2e against 0.1987 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 2.12 Mt CO2e.
That makes IDA total's figure about 11.7 times Germany's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.
Germany ranks 25th and IDA total ranks 26th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Germany averaged higher in 3 and IDA total in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Germany | IDA total | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 1.16 Mt CO2e | 0.3114 Mt CO2e | 0.8512 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1980s | 1.42 Mt CO2e | 0.5148 Mt CO2e | 0.9062 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1990s | 1.24 Mt CO2e | 0.7459 Mt CO2e | 0.4901 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 2000s | 0.4855 Mt CO2e | 1.27 Mt CO2e | 0.7833 Mt CO2e | IDA total |
| 2010s | 0.2968 Mt CO2e | 1.98 Mt CO2e | 1.68 Mt CO2e | IDA total |
| 2020s | 0.2124 Mt CO2e | 2.25 Mt CO2e | 2.04 Mt CO2e | IDA total |
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 the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
