Analysis
In 2024, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Malaysia stood at 42.38 Mt CO2e. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 8.8% on the previous year and up 28.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Malaysia peaked at 42.38 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.4354 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Malaysia ranks 12th of 190 countries on this measure, in the top 10%.
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 fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
