Analysis
In 2024, carbon intensity of gdp in Armenia stood at 0.123 kg CO2e per 2021 PPP $ of GDP. That is the lowest value across all 35 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 5.6% on the previous year and down 18.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon intensity of gdp in Armenia peaked at 1.12 kg CO2e per 2021 PPP $ of GDP in 1991 and was at its lowest, 0.123 kg CO2e per 2021 PPP $ of GDP, in 2024.
That places Armenia 100th out of 191 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.
