Analysis
Armenia recorded 0.4593 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP for carbon intensity of gdp in 2024. 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 4.19 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP in 1991 and was at its lowest, 0.4593 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP, in 2024.
That places Armenia 57th out of 199 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.
