Germany vs Lower middle income: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Germany
- Lower middle income
How they compare
Lower middle income currently reports 26.71 Mt CO2e against 1.32 Mt CO2e in Germany, a difference of 25.39 Mt CO2e.
That makes Lower middle income's figure about 20.3 times Germany's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Germany ahead.
Germany ranks 13th and Lower middle income ranks 12th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Germany averaged higher in 3 and Lower middle income in 3.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Germany | Lower middle income | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 2.22 Mt CO2e | 0.7238 Mt CO2e | 1.5 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1980s | 2.88 Mt CO2e | 1.15 Mt CO2e | 1.72 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 1990s | 4.58 Mt CO2e | 2.37 Mt CO2e | 2.21 Mt CO2e | Germany |
| 2000s | 4.11 Mt CO2e | 5.79 Mt CO2e | 1.68 Mt CO2e | Lower middle income |
| 2010s | 2.6 Mt CO2e | 17.71 Mt CO2e | 15.12 Mt CO2e | Lower middle income |
| 2020s | 1.61 Mt CO2e | 23.23 Mt CO2e | 21.62 Mt CO2e | Lower middle income |
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).
