Japan vs Thailand: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) over time
- Japan
- Thailand
How they compare
Thailand currently reports 0.5046 Mt CO2e against 0.4405 Mt CO2e in Japan, a difference of 0.0641 Mt CO2e.
That makes Thailand's figure about 1.1 times Japan's.
The two have swapped places 5 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Japan ahead.
Japan ranks 9th and Thailand ranks 8th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Japan averaged higher in 4 and Thailand in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Japan | Thailand | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.48 Mt CO2e | 0.0895 Mt CO2e | 0.3905 Mt CO2e | Japan |
| 1980s | 0.5084 Mt CO2e | 0.1348 Mt CO2e | 0.3736 Mt CO2e | Japan |
| 1990s | 0.5757 Mt CO2e | 0.2639 Mt CO2e | 0.3117 Mt CO2e | Japan |
| 2000s | 0.5444 Mt CO2e | 0.3877 Mt CO2e | 0.1568 Mt CO2e | Japan |
| 2010s | 0.5157 Mt CO2e | 0.5689 Mt CO2e | 0.0532 Mt CO2e | Thailand |
| 2020s | 0.4567 Mt CO2e | 0.5117 Mt CO2e | 0.0551 Mt CO2e | Thailand |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
