Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Italy
- Norway
How they compare
Italy currently reports 0.0117 Mt CO2e against 0.0103 Mt CO2e in Norway, a difference of 0.0014 Mt CO2e.
That makes Italy's figure about 1.1 times Norway's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Italy ahead.
Italy ranks 62nd and Norway ranks 65th of 187 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Italy averaged higher in 5 and Norway in 1.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
