Analysis
Myanmar recorded 1.94 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
The figure is up 4.6% on the previous year and down 33.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in Myanmar peaked at 7.23 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.0094 Mt CO2e, in 1991.
That places Myanmar 80th out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
