Analysis
Jordan recorded 8.24 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024.
The figure is down 2.3% on the previous year and down 31.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in Jordan peaked at 11.98 Mt CO2e in 2014 and was at its lowest, 0.2196 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Jordan 70th out of 194 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
