Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) in Ethiopia, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
Ethiopia recorded 6.55 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 1.9% on the previous year and up 68.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Ethiopia peaked at 6.55 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.1866 Mt CO2e, in 1982.
That places Ethiopia 54th 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 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).
