Russian Federation vs South Asia: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Power Industry (Energy) over time
- Russian Federation
- South Asia
How they compare
South Asia currently reports 24.93 Mt CO2e against 2.01 Mt CO2e in Russian Federation, a difference of 22.92 Mt CO2e.
That makes South Asia's figure about 12.4 times Russian Federation's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Russian Federation ahead.
Russian Federation ranks 10th and South Asia ranks 13th of 194 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Russian Federation averaged higher in 2 and South Asia in 4.
Head to head by decade

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 1.48 Mt CO2e | 0.6217 Mt CO2e | 0.8601 Mt CO2e | Russian Federation |
| 1980s | 1.78 Mt CO2e | 0.9962 Mt CO2e | 0.7797 Mt CO2e | Russian Federation |
| 1990s | 1.85 Mt CO2e | 2.11 Mt CO2e | 0.2627 Mt CO2e | South Asia |
| 2000s | 1.59 Mt CO2e | 5.46 Mt CO2e | 3.87 Mt CO2e | South Asia |
| 2010s | 1.6 Mt CO2e | 16.73 Mt CO2e | 15.13 Mt CO2e | South Asia |
| 2020s | 1.86 Mt CO2e | 21.5 Mt CO2e | 19.64 Mt CO2e | South Asia |
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).
