Euro area vs India: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Euro area
- India
How they compare
India currently reports 24.8 Mt CO2e against 3.15 Mt CO2e in Euro area, a difference of 21.65 Mt CO2e.
That makes India's figure about 7.9 times Euro area's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Euro area ahead.
Euro area ranks 2nd and India ranks 2nd of 2 regions.
Across the 6 decades both report, Euro area averaged higher in 4 and India in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Euro area | India | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 3.11 Mt CO2e | 0.6205 Mt CO2e | 2.49 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 1980s | 4.45 Mt CO2e | 0.9935 Mt CO2e | 3.46 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 1990s | 7.16 Mt CO2e | 2.11 Mt CO2e | 5.06 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 2000s | 7.54 Mt CO2e | 5.44 Mt CO2e | 2.1 Mt CO2e | Euro area |
| 2010s | 6.04 Mt CO2e | 16.68 Mt CO2e | 10.63 Mt CO2e | India |
| 2020s | 3.8 Mt CO2e | 21.39 Mt CO2e | 17.6 Mt CO2e | India |
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 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).
