Analysis
Morocco recorded 26.71 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 7.7% on the previous year and up 31.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from power industry (energy) in Morocco peaked at 31.98 Mt CO2e in 2022 and was at its lowest, 0.8325 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Morocco ranks 40th of 194 countries on this measure, 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 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).
