China vs IDA & IBRD total: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- China
- IDA & IBRD total
How they compare
IDA & IBRD total currently reports 118.5 Mt CO2e against 64.79 Mt CO2e in China, a difference of 53.71 Mt CO2e.
That makes IDA & IBRD total's figure about 1.8 times China's.
Across all 55 years both countries report, IDA & IBRD total has been ahead every year.
China ranks 1st and IDA & IBRD total ranks 2nd of 194 countries.
IDA & IBRD total has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), 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).
