Analysis

In 2024, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in Mauritius stood at 2.55 Mt CO2e. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 2.0% on the previous year and up 5.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in Mauritius peaked at 2.55 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.053 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Mauritius 107th 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.

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).
