Analysis
Malaysia recorded 35.33 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.5% on the previous year and up 23.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Malaysia peaked at 43.43 Mt CO2e in 2007 and was at its lowest, 4.8 Mt CO2e, in 1973.
That places Malaysia 24th out of 194 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).
