Analysis

The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Mongolia is 1.1 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.

That represents a change of up 11.3% on the previous year and down 20.4% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Mongolia peaked at 2.21 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.0026 Mt CO2e, in 1972.

That places Mongolia 78th out of 190 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.

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).
