Analysis
The most recent figure for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Bangladesh is 20.83 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 3.2% on the previous year and up 97.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Bangladesh peaked at 20.83 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.9547 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Bangladesh 32nd out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
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 industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
